Commonplace

In Matthew 10:8 we are instructed to "heal the sick, raise the dead, cure those with leprosy, and cast out demons!" 

As Kingdom citizens this verse should be commonplace, an everyday occurrence. But too often we think these acts are reserved for ministers or those with a special anointing. I long for the day, and it's coming, when we all engage in these ordinary activities. I want that for me and I want that for you. When miracles become common we'll stop comparing our ministries with each other. I love this quote from John Wimber:

"When everyone and anyone can heal the sick, cast out a demon or prophesy, then the danger of anyone becoming overly impressed with the minister is diminished." -- John Wimber
