Reproducing The Works

I shared the science of the power of memory with my son. He was exhilarated. He went to tell his mum.

Then he went to his room and did what I shared.

He simply recalled the memory when he first did it. The 20 cents got stuck.

Then he did the $1. It's still stuck there since yesterday.

If it's based on anointing, you need a certain man of God to do the job.

If it's based on principles, everyone can do it.

I am convinced that preaching from the pulpit probably moves only 5% of people into doing.

But if we demonstrate what we teach, we move a much greater percentage of people into reproducing the same works.

Jesus demonstrated His works to His disciples. He empowered them speedily. Because what you first caught in your memory will form the neural firing patterns needed for the next encounter when you recall back what was done the first time.

To disciple people, it takes demonstration, not preaching. This is why discipleship doesn't take place in a church service.

Perhaps, instead of spending hours and hours preparing a sermon every week that produces little result, we should spend hours and hours demonstrating so that it produces more fruit.
