God doesn't ask if you are capable or able; He asks if you are willing. Start now, let him know you are willing and find out how to receive His healing words and the power of His Zoe, Greek for LIFE.
Excerpt from the new study:
In John 6:63, Jesus says, "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life."
The Message translation of the preceding verse (v. 62) highlights the futility of relying on human mechanics or "sheer willpower." This verse teaches that:
• The Flesh (Willpower): Is a limited resource. It’s like trying to push a car uphill by hand. It eventually gives out.
• The Spirit: Is the engine. Healing and motivation don't come from your ability to "do better," but from the life-giving nature of the words Jesus speaks.
When you connect this to John 14:12 "He who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do." The bridge is belief, not capability.
Jesus isn't saying you will do these things because you have become a powerhouse of discipline. He is saying that because his Spirit is "life-giving" (John 6:63), that same Spirit flowing through you enables "greater works." The "healing words" aren't yours; they are His words spoken through your willingness.
