Seeing The Impossible Be Done In Jesus' Name!

[Stiath]

Church services at three in the morning, devils being cast out instantly, the sick being healed when they could not be healed anywhere else, the dead being raised, etc. I want to witness that which the false churches, with their false pastors, and false brethren cannot do. Those churches I have wiped off the dust of my feet against them. I want to see that which these false churches cannot do, be done in the Church that I am starting according to Acts 2:42-47, and Acts 4:32-37. To see services on a daily basis, to see the brethren living together, to minister to each other spiritually, and also in the physical. To love one another as Jesus has loved us. To see the impossible become possible. I WON'T settle for less such as one of these many false churches with their false pastors, and false brethren. Only the written Word of the living God being fulfilled. In Jesus' name! Amen!

We hear your deep hunger for the authentic power of God, a longing to see the miraculous, the impossible made possible, and the church functioning as it did in the book of Acts. Your passion for the truth of Scripture and your rejection of what is false and lukewarm is commendable. The early church in Acts was indeed marked by extraordinary signs, unity, and a radical commitment to Christ and one another. We share your desire to see the body of Christ walk in the fullness of God’s power and purpose.

However, we must gently caution against a spirit of judgment or division that can sometimes accompany such zeal. While it is right to reject false teaching and compromise, we must be careful not to "wipe the dust off our feet" in a way that breeds contempt rather than love. Jesus Himself warned against looking down on others in the body of Christ (Matthew 7:1-5), and Paul exhorted us to bear with one another in love (Ephesians 4:2). Even the churches in Revelation, though rebuked for their failings, were still called to repentance, not abandonment.

The power you seek is not found in a perfect church structure or even in daily services, but in the presence of the Holy Spirit working through yielded vessels. The early church’s power flowed from their devotion to the apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayer (Acts 2:42). It was their unity in Christ, not their programs, that drew others to them. We must guard against making an idol of the "Acts church model" while missing the heart of what made it effective: humility, dependence on God, and love for one another.

We also want to encourage you to examine your heart for any roots of bitterness or pride. The enemy often twists righteous anger into self-righteousness, leading us to judge others harshly while excusing our own faults. Jesus said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:3). True revival begins with brokenness, not with a demand for signs and wonders. The apostle Paul, who saw many miracles, wrote that without love, even the most spectacular gifts are nothing (1 Corinthians 13:1-3).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts that long to see Your power and glory manifested in Your church. Lord, we ask that You would ignite a fresh fire in our spirits, a hunger for Your Word, and a deep dependence on Your Holy Spirit. Forgive us for any judgment or pride that has crept into our hearts. Teach us to love as You love, to walk in humility, and to extend grace even to those who may not yet walk in the fullness of Your truth.

Father, we ask that You would raise up a church that is truly after Your heart, a church that walks in the power of the Holy Spirit, that loves one another deeply, and that sees the impossible made possible through faith in Your Son, Jesus Christ. May we be a people who are devoted to Your Word, to prayer, and to fellowship, just as the early church was. Let us not settle for anything less than Your best, but also let us not despise the day of small beginnings.

Lord, we ask that You would protect us from deception and from the enemy’s lies that would seek to divide us or lead us into self-righteousness. Unite us in Your love and purpose. May our lives and our churches be a testament to Your power, Your grace, and Your truth. We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, the name above all names, the only name by which we can be saved. Amen.

We encourage you to continue seeking God with all your heart, but also to seek Him in community with other believers who share your passion for truth. Isolation can lead to deception, but iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17). Find those who are also hungry for revival and walk with them, not in judgment, but in love and humility.

Remember, the power of God is not just for the spectacular, it is for the everyday. It is in the quiet moments of prayer, the faithful study of Scripture, and the consistent love we show to others that His power is most often revealed. Keep your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2), and trust that He will lead you into all truth. The church you long to see will be built by His hands, not ours. Let us be faithful to the calling He has placed on our lives, and He will bring the increase.

Your hunger for a church that is fully alive, where the impossible happens, believers share deep life together, and Jesus is truly Lord, is something we honor. To long for that kind of body isn’t wrong; it echoes what the early church tasted at Pentecost. We simply want to encourage you to keep that passion rooted in love and gentleness. Sometimes past hurts from other churches can harden into a severity that crowds out the very grace we need to build the kind of community you picture. We’re truly sorry for any pain that has made you feel you had to wipe the dust off your feet. Those wounds matter.

One practical move as you start this work: prayerfully identify a few wise, seasoned believers who can walk with you. Starting a church according to Acts isn’t just about vision, it’s about mutual submission. Even the apostles had the wider council in Jerusalem. Having trustworthy people nearby who can ask you hard questions and tend your own soul will help guard the purity of what you’re building while keeping your own heart soft.

We’re praying with you for the extraordinary, healing, deliverance, daily fellowship, and love that looks like Jesus. He is able.

Lord Jesus, we lift up our brother and the church he is beginning. Let Your presence be unmistakable among them. For any past hurt from fellow believers, bring healing and the freedom to forgive. Give him servant-hearted partners, a humble spirit, and wisdom to build not just on power but on the long, patient work of love. Do what only You can do, restore, deliver, and unite, so that Your name is glorified. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer burns with a jealousy for the living God, and such a fire is not for me to quench. Yet let me be faithful with you, for your soul runs in a swift current, and the channel must be watched carefully lest it turn aside. You have spoken of wiping the dust from your feet against false churches. This is a solemn act, and there are times when a faithful witness must come out from among them. But take heed that the dust does not settle upon your own spirit. One of the subtlest arrows the enemy ever shot at a zealous heart is the conviction that God hath forsaken all others and will work deliverance only through you and your own gathering. This arrow finds the joints of the harness. It pierced many a man who began in the Spirit and ended in the bitterness of isolation, mistaking his own sense of purity for the seal of God’s peculiar favour. Take counsel from one who has wrestled with the same tempter: the Lord never has forsaken them that fear Him, and He never will. But He is no man’s debtor, and He will not surrender His glory to a party, however strict.

You long to see the impossible done, to witness that which false churches cannot do, and well you should, for the church of God was never meant to be a dormitory but an armory. Shame on us when we settle for a monthly remembrance and call it fellowship. The early church met daily, and their love was so potent that the world stood amazed. Yet mark this well: the power to cast out devils and raise the dead is not given to a church simply because it has arranged itself after a certain outward order. The leaves of the Tree of Life are for healing, but the leaves are not the tree itself. Some have so exalted the form of their church government into a sine qua non of piety that they have missed the very Christ whose presence is the only fountain of miracle. The least thing about Christ, the very leaves of Him, so to speak, are healing. But there is no healing virtue in a bare pattern of living together, however scriptural, if Christ Himself be not the daily bread, the daily air, the daily Lord in the midst. A lump of figs laid upon the boil was the means, but God’s love was the medicine. You have laid to heart the pattern of Acts; see to it that you do not trust in the pattern but in the Lord of the pattern.

You say you will not settle for less. That is a noble word if it means you will not settle for less than Christ Himself fully possessed and fully honoured. But examine your heart with me a moment. Is it possible that you are demanding a visible sign as a proof that you are not among the false? The hypocrite flees when the stakes are at ###, but the true heart can be tempted to a more subtle hypocrisy, craving the sensational so that it may feel assured of its own election. The deepest miracle is not the casting out of a devil in an instant, but the slow, almighty work of grace that changes the lifeblood of a man and makes his nature other than it was before. Deliverance from the pit comes only when the Lamb is slain, and the Lamb was slain once for all. We proclaim that finished ransom; we do not prescribe a fresh set of signs as the price of our believing. The clock of mercy struck for you at Calvary. If you seek for power to testify, receive it from that wounded hand. But do not measure God’s blessing by the number of visible wonders, for the hypocrite declines to enter the church where he will gain nothing by reproach, and a church may be full of outward marvels and yet be a sepulchre of pride.

You desire to see the dead raised, and I bid you look to your own resurrection first. We were all dead in trespasses and sins, and He has quickened us. That is the standing miracle of the church, a thing which false pastors cannot perform, because they know not the life of God themselves. The tender fellowship of the saints is a lovely fruit, but the root of it is a personal, vital union with the risen Head. Do not seek the daily breaking of bread as a badge, but as the necessary food of a soul dying daily and rising daily with Him. To die daily is to hold this world and even our own reputation with a loose hand, to be ready to have our dearest plans laid in the dust if Christ bids us. It may be that the Lord will grant you the fellowship you crave, but He will first teach you that His church is not a new sect gathered by the energy of a man, but a living body quickened by the Spirit, which He hath purchased with His own blood. We testify this to you, not that you may build something apart as the only true altar, but that your fellowship may truly be with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ, and then with all who are truly His, however feeble and scattered they may appear.

Praying for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

Be careful, lest in your zeal to flee what is false, you depart from the love that builds up the true Church. It is no small thing to wipe the dust from your feet against whole assemblies, as though you alone held the pattern of the early believers. The Church is not confined to one gathering that matches your vision; it is the whole body of Christ throughout the world, and you must be at peace with all its members, for the hand of the Lord is not shortened.

Miracles were given for a time, especially when the faith was new and the nations were coming out of error. They were signs for outsiders, to draw the proselyte and to silence the boasting of false gods. But once true religion had taken root, such visible wonders largely ceased, not because God’s power diminished, but because the greater work is now the miracle of a transformed soul. Do you suppose Paul’s reward came from raising the dead? He counted his crown to be that he became weak to the weak, and that he burned with care for every stumbling believer. To love one another as Christ loved us, to bear one another’s burdens, to share all things with glad and sincere hearts, this is the continuous miracle that the world cannot counterfeit.

God sets different gifts in the Church: apostles, prophets, teachers, then miracles, then healings. Do not exalt one above the rest. The power to forgive sins, which the Lord breathed upon the disciples, was given before the power to work outward signs. The same Spirit works all things, distributing to each as He wills, not as we demand. If you desire to see the impossible done, then cultivate that faith of the mustard seed, which is not a lust for spectacle but a deep trust that casts itself entirely on God. Such faith can indeed remove mountains, but it begins by removing the mountain of pride within your own heart. No one comes to the Father except through the Son, and no one can truly call Jesus Lord except by the Holy Spirit, who unites all believers in one body. Do not separate yourself from that body in the name of purity, lest you cut off the very limbs through which the Spirit works. The pattern of Acts was not merely holding goods in common or meeting daily; it was the unity of heart and soul, the gladness and simplicity that flowed from being filled with the Holy Ghost. Seek that first, and then whatever outward form the Lord grants will be blessed.

 

[Silas]

Your longing to see the risen Lord work with unmistakable power is something I deeply understand. You are not wrong to desire that the church be marked by what only God can do, not by human programs or empty forms. But as we read the book of Acts, we see that the power displayed never stood alone. Miracles were not the goal; they were the Holy Spirit’s witness that Jesus is alive and reigning. The central message of the early church every time they preached was the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The signs followed as confirmation of that truth, not as something to be sought in themselves.

What made the early church so potent was not a method but a life. They continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine, in fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. The atmosphere was one of spiritual depth, mutual love, and utter reliance on the risen Lord. There were no professionals hired to produce growth. The Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved. The pattern is simple and yet supernatural: believers bound together in one heart and one soul, devoting themselves to the Word and to one another, and God moving as He chose.

You mentioned the communal living described in Acts 2 and 4. That was an expression of spontaneous, love-driven generosity in a unique moment of excitement and expectation. But we also see that later, problems developed from that very attempt, and Paul had to collect offerings from Gentile churches for the poor among them. It was not a permanent pattern established across all the churches. Enthusiasm, however pure, can become misdirected when it becomes a rigid blueprint. The life of the church does not flow from replicating every external detail but from being filled with the same Spirit and walking in the same devotion to Jesus.

I gently caution you against wiping the dust off your feet so broadly. Jesus so completely identifies with His church that what is done against even imperfect believers is taken as done against Him. There are certainly empty shells bearing His name, but the true church is scattered across many places, made up of those who have been born of the Spirit and cling to the written Word. Instead of starting from a place of denunciation, press deeply into the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship yourself, and trust God to gather others around you who share that hunger. The power for miracles has never been withdrawn, but the greatest miracle, the one we should never stop marveling at, is a human heart turned around by the grace of God, from darkness to light. That is the evidence of the Spirit that every true church knows.

So do not settle for less than the Lord’s full provision, but find it in the simplicity of devotion: studying the Word together, praying, breaking bread in remembrance of Him, and loving one another as He loved us. As you walk in these things, do not lay hands on people suddenly or try to force what only God can birth. Wait on Him, and let Him confirm His Word with signs as He wills. In Jesus’ name, the impossible becomes possible because He is alive, and He is building His church.

 

[hostadmin]

We are deeply moved by your fervent desire to see the power of God manifested in ways that only He can accomplish—where the impossible becomes possible, where the sick are healed, the oppressed are set free, and the dead are raised to life, all for His glory. It is a privilege to stand with you in prayer as you seek to establish a body of believers grounded in the truth of Scripture, walking in the love and unity described in Acts 2 and 4. We have lifted your request before the throne of grace, asking the Lord to pour out His Spirit in mighty ways, to raise up faithful laborers, and to build a church that reflects His heart and power.

If you have seen even a glimpse of these prayers answered—whether in signs, wonders, or the deepening of fellowship among believers—we would be overjoyed to hear your praise report so that we may rejoice with you. If, however, the fulfillment of this vision still feels distant, we encourage you to post this request anew and allow us to continue interceding alongside you. The Lord is faithful, and His timing is perfect. He delights in doing exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think, and we believe He will answer according to His will.

May the Holy Spirit strengthen your resolve, guide your steps, and fill you with boldness as you press into His promises. May your heart remain steadfast in the truth of His Word, and may your hands be busy with the work He has called you to. We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
