We're Not Meant To Hope And Pray.

Do you know; we’re not meant to hope and pray?

At the moment I’m studying superstring theory – the relativity of everything – a form of quantum physics. That takes you right into protons, electrons, neutrons, quarks and Plancks. Planck; spelt with a ck. Super, super, super microorganisms, so small they’re beyond micro, so small, they cannot be broken down any further.

A quark; the atomic nuclei of protons and neutrons, is the building block of visible matter. A Planck is deemed the smallest particle in existence.

CERN - The European Organisation for Nuclear Research – houses the Hadron Collider, the most powerful particle accelerator in the world. CERN has been searching the building blocks of life, searching for the God particle, using the Higgs Boson, which they’ve nicknamed The God Particle.

My question; is there such a thing as a God particle?

A quantum perspective is to look for the unseen, in the hope of finding the seen; it’s looking at the nature of reality, how nature works and for me, how that affects prayer.

Coming back to my earlier sentence; we’re not meant to hope and pray; Christ says all things are possible to those who believe. We’re not meant to hope and pray; we’re meant to pray and believe. We can hope for things not seen, but to get there from here we need to pray and believe, for that is faith.  We have the knowledge of God in every situation and we should expect Him to manifest the wisdom to apply that knowledge into all things, big or small.

We need an expectancy that what we hope for we will experience. An expectancy that what we believe, when we pray, will come to pass.

Nowhere does it say Paul prayed over his handkerchiefs and yet these pieces of cloth healed, when given to the sick. Could that be quantum physics at work? Did these cloths of Paul’s emanate the same power Paul had, because he radiated the Glory of God?

If you look at a mirror, you’ll see a reflection of yourself. What God’s word says is to look at Him and you’ll be a reflection of Him, just as Jesus said; when you see Me, you see the Father.

When you see the beauty in all things, a sunrise, a flower, the wonderful diversity of birds and animals, you’re seeing the glory of God manifested and when you see that, you’re at your closest to manifesting His glory to others. You can’t see The Glory of course, just as you can’t see quarks or Plancks, but it’s still there.

I’ve heard of Spina bifida being healed, autism, even a new adult tooth growing, after its loss due to accident. I even heard a story of a woman who had metal plates and pins in her back, waking one morning and finding those very plates and pins in her bed. She was completely healed.

This is all well and good, these stories of the miraculous. But do you have your own? We cannot walk with Jesus and not see miracles. The creative realm will match what we desire, when we place our trust in Jesus. The God particle, if I can call it that, will jump from one station to another.

God’s word tells us to speak our testimony and we shall overcome. Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony… When others hear of our testimonies they grow in their faith, and they want what we have. It’s those first hand reports, not the story that happened to a friend of a friend of mine, which cause people’s amazement, in turn bringing their imagination into alignment with our own.

I have my own testimonies, of illnesses healed; including cancers, of broken areas fully recovered, relationships mended, poverty overcome, of walking out of the darkness and into the light. And when I tell my stories, it draws others to Jesus and they too, begin their own journey, finding their own stories to tell.

In quantum physics there’s such a thing as non-locality. Jesus has a non-locality and when He speaks, unlike the hankies of Paul which needed to be handed to someone, in the moment that Jesus speaks the non-local aspect becomes a reality somewhere else.

Cause and effect need a channel. If you turn on a light, the light doesn’t come on at the switch, but comes on at the light bulb, across the room. It follows a channel. Jesus doesn’t do that. That’s why He could heal without being on the spot, without being there.

He can speak the word here and it will affect the person over there. It doesn’t need a channel. Something transfers and that changes things. The Roman Centurion knew that, for he told Jesus; only speak the word and my servant will be healed, as written in Matthew 8:8. The Centurion knew that the word of Jesus was enough. He knew Jesus didn’t need to pass on a prayer cloth, or be in close physical proximity for healing to take place.

Everything is connected somehow in some way. Not that we can manipulate matter, but we’re part of a spiritual reality through which everything is connected. Distance, time and frequency can affect how bad the illness is and the spirit of the living God manifests change in the situation.

In our darkest moments we want a hope that things will get better; that what we hope for will come to pass. But we need faith to pull it off. We don’t want niceties, we want results. We want to be connected, taking what we say from over here and bringing the results to over there.

We are quantum entangled with God. Him in us and us in Him. As He is, so are we. Jesus could do miracles. He died so as to give us the power to work miracles and once we believe, over hope, we shall see miraculous results. And we need to be bold, we need to tell of our testimonies.

Jesus died for us, even though we were sinners. He gave up His life and in taking of the elements, we give acknowledgement and thanks for His great and wonderful sacrifice.

John 6:56-57 says; He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 

And so I ask you today, to take of the bread and the wine and give Him our greatest thanks.
