"These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." -MARK 16:17-18
In war, infantry will slog their way to a head-on encounter with the enemy, and they must have the resources appropriate to the moment. A field commander radios map coordinates to a fighter squadron, circling overhead. Suddenly a barrage from the sky strikes the foe. God’s promise to His people on Kingdom mission is to provide what they need, when they need it, and on the right coordinates. The Church loses the big point when it gets sidetracked debating the resources God gives. Instead, she is to go forward on the promise of His supply for what we need in each situation.
