What
an incredible thought to begin 2014 with…countless numbers of Christians have
never seen Jesus, yet have
believed! Hallelujah! Amen!
I
wonder how many who read this will be impacted by the ministry of The Invisible
King this year…
The Invisible King
Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you
believed? Blessed {are}
they who did not see, and {yet} believed.”
--John 20:29
I really love the fact that Jesus is invisible to us! I
want Him to remain invisible. Of course, without faith, it is impossible to
please Him. We know that. But for me, there is more. I love the fact that He is
invisible. Often I enter a country wherein Christianity is illegal, especially
in the Muslim countries. However, because He is invisible, I enter the country with His hand on my shoulder
and no one notices. I bring with me the whole Kingdom and its King. If
He were visible, it would not be allowed; because He cannot be seen, no one
says a word. We enter, and
with us comes all that is true about Him. Beautiful. Thank You, Jesus,
that You are invisible. I
also like the invisible currency of His kingdom. Often I have taken a
few dollars to a place and given them to a Christian cloth-maker. The cloth is
given to a Christian seamstress, and the clothes given to children at a
Christian school. Everyone reaps the benefit, and every penny is multiplied.
Amazing.

Michael walked with the King in the midst of those who would have
persecuted him had they known Who he was walking with! Those two sentences highlighted in green are
enough to encourage any missionary in one of those countries where Christianity
is illegal.
But what about us? Are we
encouraged? Are we enthused about the
prospects of entering a place somewhere our Christianity is not wanted, perhaps
not allowed (no matter that it is not illegal)…and our King is entering with
us! Not only our King, but the whole
Kingdom. “We enter, and with us comes
all that is true about Him.” Think of
the possibilities that presents for us.
Wow!
And what about that invisible currency thing? Everyone knows His Church gets more for the
dollar than any business could ever hope for.
And not only what one dollar buys, but the unlimited dollars our King
can, and does, return to the spender (and the ones who give or do for less than
“market price.”).
Our Invisible Jesus does invisible things from the world’s eyes, but can
be seen through the spiritual eyes our King has given us. Well, amen.
Let the world go on wondering how so much is done (multiplied) through
so little.
That leads to me to a thought...if
you have a story of the “invisible” (His currency, His presence, or other) that
you think would be an encouragement to someone in another part of the world,
would you email your story to me (see address below) and I will share it in an
addendum to a future blog, calling it “A Touch of the Invisible Power.” Please include your name, location,
and other pertinent info you think would help others. If for security reasons you cannot share
these, we will understand.
If
you have any desire to interact with me on something Michael has written,
and/or any of my thoughts, please note the email address just below my name at
the bottom of this.
