WORKING MIRACLES WITH GOD - ALBERT ELISHA OBERDORFER - SAMPLE
God’s work is supernatural. He “gives life to the dead and calls those things that are not as though they were.” God invites us to be co-workers with Him. But along the way, He needs us to learn a few lessons. He needs to remove pride from us so that we can be endowed with His grace—His supernatural enablement. So before He can work with us effectively, He needs to have done a work in us. Take Jacob, for example. God had to break him. He had to remove Jacob’s strongest part. And change His identity from a supplanter to a prince of God. God works in us because we are sons and daughters, not illegitimate children. Yet, because some of us are so used to achieving in the natural, it is almost inevitable that we will not be producing some Ishmaels along the way. That we won’t try to achieve the promises of God in our own strength—through natural means. But God is faithful, as He was in the case of Abraham. He will be walking with us right until the end. And in the process, teach us, transform us, and make us usable. For His purpose. Unto His glory. Read the insights in this booklet. They will impart to you some faith steroids that will encourage you in your walk with the Lord. If you are willing, He is going to use you as a co-worker with Him.

2 REST AND HE DOES<br />
THE WORK.<br />
PAUL ANG from the Arsenal of Fire<br />
Global Ministries in Singapore has an apt<br />
way of explaining how we can work in the<br />
ability that God supplies.<br />
When His glory rests on you, then it is He<br />
who is doing the work.<br />
Then it is no longer you doing it, but He<br />
(the glory of God) is doing it.<br />
Paul Ang refers to the scripture in<br />
Matthew 11:28-30.<br />
“Come to Me, all you who labor and are<br />
heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take<br />
My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for<br />
I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you<br />
will find rest for your souls. For My yoke<br />
is easy and My burden is light.”<br />
When we learn to minister by the<br />
prompting of the Holy Spirit and the glory<br />
of God rests on us, then everything is easy.<br />
There is no sweat involved.<br />
Because then it is He (the glory of God)<br />
that does the work.<br />
