TOPIC: These Signs Shall Follow Believers
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Samuel 7, 1 Chronicles 12
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Mark 16:15-18
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
MEMORY VERSE: “BEHOLD, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.” – Isaiah 8:18
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
Christianity without power is a frustrated religion.
PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
EVERYWHERE YOU GO FROM NOW, YOU WILL LEAVE A BLAZING TRAIL OF SIGNS AND WONDERS, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
The MESSAGE:
Signs and wonders are parts of the heritage of all believers in Christ Jesus. Signs in this instance are signature of God. Believers are to be followed by signs not sorrow. It also means that believers should possess and manifest the power of God as in Acts 5:12. The book of Acts of the Apostle gives a detailed account of how signs follow believers. We have examples of how the shadow of Peter and the handkerchiefs from the body of Paul healed the sick. There are also several examples in our contemporary time, where signs are manifested through believers.

Our Fire Scripture for today lists five major signs that are to follow believers. They include: casting out devils, speaking with new tongues, and taking up serpents, divine immunity against the poison of enemies and healing the sick. These are all manifestations of signs in the lives of believers, not of unbelievers or doubters. Faith is a vital key for unlocking the door to the miraculous. Faith is the connection between man and the miracle-working power of God. How do we take delivery of faith? Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. We need to labour in the word of God through reading, studying, meditating, memorising and praying (Romans 10:17)
These signs will also manifest only by praying in the name of Jesus (Philippians 2:9-10). It is faith in the name of Jesus (Acts 3:16) that brings signs and wonders, not our power or our personality. These signs are for those who believe in the name of Jesus. If you are not yet a believer, then this is another opportunity for you to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour so that you enjoy the fullness of these divine blessings. If you’re a believer, lay claim to your heritage and begin to manifest the signs and wonders of God.
