John 14:12
“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.”
Jesus said it was not Him but the Father in Him that did the works. In Acts 10:38 we are told that God anointed Jesus with the Holy Spirit and power who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil. Jesus did not do the miracles He did because He was God, for if that were true then we would not be able to do the works He did for we are not God.
Jesus most certainly is the Son of God who came in the flesh to the earth, but He did the works by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Upon putting our faith in Jesus Christ, we can do the same works Jesus did, because it is the same Holy Spirit living in us that was with Him. He has given us a Helper to do the work. Now all we have to do is to have faith in Jesus, faith in what He has said we can do, and then allow the Holy Spirit to work through us.
He is the Head; we are the body. We are His hands and feet, and His Word spoken in this earth. Step out in faith and know that you have the same Holy Spirit in your life to do the work. As Jesus said in Matthew 10:8, freely we have received, freely give. When we use His name in faith when ministering to others, we release the same power that Jesus used to set people free, the power of the Holy Spirit.
