What is empowerment?
The Master gave a very clear answer about it. It is described in Matthew 17.14 :
“…a man came to Jesus,knelt before him and said : “Sir, have mercy on my son! He is an epileptic and has such terrible fits that he often falls in the fire or into water. I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.”
Jesus just had to give a command and at that very moment the boy was healed.
Why? Why did it work with the command of the Master and not with the command of the disciples?
Did The Master have a special power his Disciples did not have?
He answers this question very clearly:
“You haven’t enough faith”
That’s all. Nothing else. In faith is the Key of Power :
“I assure you that if you have faith as big as a mustard seed, you can say to this hill “Go from here to there!” and it will go. You could do anything.”
Is there anything else requested? Any condition? No!
So why are the disciples unable to reach the level of faith of a small mustard seed?
Think about it and find what dis-empowers you?
