Apostle Joshua Selman, the founder of Eternity Network International spoke to his members Koinonia.
He revealed that years ago, he listened to Benny Hinn and he made a statement that he appreciated so much, but now, having walked a bit in the miracle ministry, he can tell clearly that he understands what he was saying. Benny Hinn said that in many of his meetings; if their attention (the people’s attention) was just on their healing or problem; most times they would not receive anything.
They would have to take their eyes away from the problem and focus on Jesus because for many people you see, they do not agree that God has the absolute power to help them. So they just feel like, “God, I don’t want You to come into every aspect, I’ll manage this one. I just want you to touch this and that” and God says, “you are either ready to get out of the way and allow me to step in or you finish fighting and exhaust your pride.”
According to him, we live in a world that is largely philosophical. There is overdependence on the flesh, so when people come for a Miracle Service they are trusting God to reach them and open doors but from head to toe, they are full of themselves.
Some people idolize their certificate, their qualifications e.t.c, and claim that since they have all these things all they need is just a bit of the anointing on it and they are on fire. “No! Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD watches over a city, the watchman waketh but in vain,” the man of God said. He then revealed that It is vain for you to wake up early in the morning, to sleep late in the night, only to eat the bread of sorrows.
Finally, he said to lean means that when it has to do with dealing with God, do not bring your understanding to compete with Him. His realm is higher than our realm; His thoughts higher than our thoughts.
