Kathryn Kuhlman was one of the greatest evangelists who manifested God’s miracle power in her generation. She was used by God to minister to millions across the globe.
Kathryn Kuhlman started out in ministry in 1928, after spending five years serving under the ministry of her sister and brother-in-law. As a young preacher with no financial backing from any denomination, she faced a lot of financial difficulties. Yet she lived by the principle of faith and believed she served the big God whose resources were not limited.
Trusting in God’s divine provision, she engaged a businessman to help manage her preaching schedule, even when she barely had any money.
In 1933, the financial Depression in America was severe and millions of people were out of work. Yet, Kathryn told her business manager to go to Denver, Colorado and organize a meeting and act as if they had a million dollars. When he pointed out that in reality they had only $5, she said:
“God is not limited to what we have or who we are. He can certainly use our five dollars and multiply it just as easily as He multiplied the loaves and fishes…Now go on up to Denver. Find me the biggest building you can….This is God’s business, and we’re going to do it God’s way—big!”
The business manager followed her instructions and got a big warehouse for the meetings. The first night of the meeting, 125 people showed up. By the second night, over 400 people attended and from then on, the warehouse filled to capacity every night.
People were hungry for the Word of God and the response to Kathryn’s messages was very great. After five months, Kathryn announced that the meeting was over, but the people wouldn’t hear of it. One man offered to make the down payment on a permanent building and erect a huge neon sign over it which would read, “Prayer Changes Things.”
They indeed got a permanent building where Kathryn could settle down to begin holding regular meetings in Denver.
From then on Kathryn’s ministry began to expand until it eventually became a global ministry that affected many lives. Kathryn Kulman succeeded in ministry because she trusted God and took bold steps of faith.

To see signs and wonders we must not let fear stop us from taking bold steps of faith.
The truth is that, when you move by faith and do what you can do, God will step in and do what you can’t do. When you do the natural, God will do the supernatural.
We must never limit what God can do in our lives.
When you are faced with intimidating situations always remember there is God who is greater and higher than them all. Whenever you are confronted, remember that the greater One lives in you.

In Isaiah 41:10 God says ‘Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.’

Certainly, when God is with us we will not need to fear or become dismayed. His Presence around us will strengthen us to do exploits. Being with Jesus was the secret that gave the Apostles the boldness to step out to do signs and wonders in their generation.

Acts 4:13 says ‘Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.’

Indeed spending time with Jesus through His Word, imparts boldness in our hearts to step forward in faith. Certainly, they that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits.
When the Word dominates our hearts we will receive an inoculation of power that will cause us to do extra ordinary things.
As this year begins to round up, do not be intimidated by any financial constraints or other limitations around you, rather trust that God is able to amaze you with 11th hour miracles.
Just stay in faith and keep giving glory to God for the great and mighty things He is set to do in your life.
Certainly, you won’t end this year in defeat, rather you will end it in victory! You will end it as more than a conqueror, because you serve the mighty God of miracles.

PRAYER: Lord, please enable me to meditate constantly on Your Word so that my heart can be filled with the faith I need to step out in faith. By Your grace what looks impossible to men will become possible in my life in this season in Jesus Name. .
