The Transforming Power of Jesus — Basilea Schlink

Faith in God's Power to Change the World

God lives and works today. Is that hard for you to believe when you look at the world situation? Do you care about the world you live in? You can actually help to change the world situation today if you have faith.

Believing in Jesus' Transforming Power

Today's meditation by Basilia Schlink will explain how. Concern for our nation and believe in the transforming power of Jesus is in itself full of promise. Far-reaching aid for our nation is available when people believe.

Faith as a Proclamation of Christ's Victory

If Jesus intervenes in the life of our people with so little power, is it not due to our lack of faith? He waits in vain for people who will proclaim his victory over the powers of darkness which beset our nation.

The Prayer of Faith and God's Power

Prayer is important, but only the prayer of faith will remove mountains. It sets God's arm in motion and claims his power for a particular need. It draws his help down and causes his power to be made manifest.

Abraham, Jonah, and the Power of Intercession

Today, demonic powers are threatening to ruin countless numbers of our people for time and eternity. Therefore, nothing pleases God more than the prayer of faith for the victory over these forces. God answered Abraham's request for Sodom and Gomorrah when he prayed if only five righteous people were in the town.

For this reason, God sent the prophet Jonah to the town of Nineveh to call the people back to prayer and repentance so that the town and all its inhabitants would be spared. What marvelous possibilities we have!

Putting Faith into Action

What promises are at our command! Great things can happen through us when we put our faith into action. Then God will be able to answer. Let us pray. Our Lord Jesus Christ, without you we are powerless before the menacing forces of destruction which are surging over our country and drawing it under their spell.

Prayer Against Darkness and Sin

Therefore, we call upon your all-conquering name, holding it up against the satanic influence which flows out of television, films, literature, and many publications of the press. Lord, we believe that the dark forces will be broken if we call upon your name.

You have won the victory over them when you died at Calvary. Help us through your Holy Spirit to take up and to continue the battle against sin in our own lives. Let us really be an honest, sincere witness to our people of your redeeming, liberating grace.

Give us that vital love which will overcome the demonic powers at work in our people. We believe that we shall be able to do all things through you, our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. You've been listening to a program written by Basilia Schlink of the Little Land of Canaan.
