Will you receive, if it is not what you want to hear. When you go for it there is no turning back. It can be a mountian top or a valley. Seek wisdom! I have no problem in stepping out.

Orange it will help if you post another message with more detail.For instance you refer to God's "big promises".Which ones?You also wrote,"I need big money now"What do you need it for?One of Jesus' "big promises"is:"it is as hard for a rich man to get into heaven as it is for a camel to go through the eye of a camel"Your request for "spiritual power" sounds more biblical but again what specifically are you asking God for?It's best to just pray for the bapitism of the Holy Spirit and let God determine what spiritual gift you'll receive instead of telling God what you want from Him.You should let God determine how he wants to use you and how and when He will prepare you for His mission for your life,NOT YOUR OWN MISSION.Stay close to Jesus and His teachings and HE will give you pleanty of spiritual power.

Do you understand faith. Do you understand that faith beliveves it has received even when there is no outward evidence that anything has happened. Have you prayed to be healed and thanked God that you were healed, not because you felt healed or looked healed.... but just because He said you would be if you asked. Faith people praise God through the pain and symptoms. The first thing you must do is to believe He does what He said what He would do, and begin to talk like it.orange said:
Realize that the sort of miracles you are talking about (like maybe calling fire from the sky and commanding the rain to stop...) are not the sort that occur because of human faith. They occur as a result of the gifts of the spirit via the Gift of Faith and Miracles. Certain individuals receive these gifts and they have to know how to believe God and manifest them. I have no doubt there are people reading this who possess these gifts but simply do not know how to get them to manifest.
Accepting the fact that they are for today is a very important thing! I have never seen people who deny the power of God receive anything. Once in a while out of mercy God reaches down and heals one of these unfortunates, but as a rule you have to operate in faith.
If your need is genuine, then there is no need for any miracles. The money is there, and it is yours. The devil may have it, or you just may not know how to get it. Alas very often people will wait for the storms of life to come upon them before they begin to build the foundation to their faith house. When the storm is here in all its' fury it is very difficult to mantian your spiritual poise and walk in faith.
I pray for you bro.

Ask Jesus to Baptize you in the Holy Spirit. (If you know somebody already spirit filled ask them to lay hands on you)
Matt 3:11
Acts 19:1-6
This is NOT about speaking in tongues! This is about recieving the promise of the Holy Spirit! Acts 2:38-39
O yes then get water baptized... why? because Jesus said you should:
Mark 16:16
Ok I'm probably going to get a 1000 msgs back trying to prove to me how wrong this is..
and so on.. well I guess each one has to decide for himself how to live is life.
So post your msgs I don't care. God said he puts before us life and death NOW CHOOSE LIFE.

Hi you. I see that many of you know and understand many spiritual things, which many Christians dont know. But I also know these things. God speak with my friend with voice about every day and we learn many interesting things from God. But it is not enough. First I want is that God would speak and with me. Second I want to have or the same spiritual authority that Jesus Christ had or more than Jesus Christ had. It is His promise if you remember. I want it also for the all believers.
Maybe many dont know many promises of God but Jesus have many big promises and I keep them in my heart.
So I need advices from them who have more faith and more spiritual gifts than I. And what God have to say me by them who have spiritual special gifts, for example gift of prophesy? Are there some who are like by power to Moses, Elijah, Elisha and to Jesus Christ? Please help me in the name of Christ.

Orange, I am no prophet of God, no mighty spirit, and I certainly have not inherited the promises of God which I have asked for. I have 3 comments for you, do what you will with them.
1)
Heb 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
God knows your heart, your thoughts and your intents with this request. Make sure they are clear in your own mind before you approach the throne, and that they are infact selfless and holy.
2)
Heb 6:12
That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
"Apprehend the Lord for that for which you were apprehended." "Take Hold of His covenant." Believe that He is a rewarder of those that "dilligently seek Him." Get on your knees till He answers, and He shall guide you personally. Determine in your heart to wait until He comes. He is faithful and will not let you down. The test, at that point, is up to you to pass.
3)
I asked for these same promises; I will not hide my desire for God to break forth (Isa 64). He responded in a miraculous dream, with a simple statement and 2 verses:
"IT IS NEAR"
James 1:3
Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
Romans 5:3
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience.
May God grant you great power to reveal Him.

I can really feel your desperation in your post. But can you be spacific? Is God right now the most real thing in your life ? If not thats where we have to start. We have to get ourselves into position to receive. If you have not been Baptised in the Holy Spirit, this is where everybody needs to start Seek the Lord on this and your spiritual life will be opened up to you, to have boldness according to Gods word to receive the promisies of God. It will not just be head knowledge to you anymore but total spiritual truth. I dont have any idea where you are in your walk with the Lord, Come to Him as a child, knowing full well that He will meet you there. Put yourself in a worship surrounding at home if need be, put on some beautiful music to the Lord, and praise Him, give yourself totally to Him, and Trust Him.orange said:

My respects to you mister. I am Protestant from Armenia. There is good and big Charismatic Church in Armenia. Our Orthodox national Church dont like them. But I am a member of Evangelical Church.
I want to say that I was exposed many miracles in my life. It is difficulty for me to remember they all, but they in general were not essential in value.
I was healed many time but it didnt expressed any power in me.
I want power for every day when I would want to do. In my youth I was exposed by Holy Ghost power in Orthodox Church in 3 or 4 time. Then I knew very little and did not know what to do, so I prayed every time.
I was going to the church to pray and or in Church or in street, when I was
Walking the power came to me. But when I pray now for it, a power dont come to me.
But that times and now I dont know when God power will come to me.
I want many things, so I dont want to say about that many things.
Only if you dont against please pray for me to have very very much
1) Faith,
2) Money,
3) Power.
And please answer to my this questions also.
You are 90, but when miracles and power was beginning in your life in how spiritual situation you was? In other words what do you think,
What happened in your hearth that God began to give you some power???
Why did not you receive a power till that time, what you think?
And second, what God says to you about me, what to do me?
God help you in every thing and in your work. And thank you for your answer to me.
