Why Did Jesus Identified It As A Narrow Road?
In Jesus' Own Words
- '"Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it. Matthew 7:13-14 NAS
- ' Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and spacious and broad is the way that leads away to destruction, and many are those who are entering through it. But the gate is narrow (contracted by pressure) and the way is straitened and compressed that leads away to life, and few are those who find it. Matthew 7:13-14 AMPC
Observation
Those who’ve found this narrow road are on the edge, a leading edge for some who are looking for real answers, while many others have resisted moving forward by “holding on” to their comfortable ways and practices. The awareness of this narrow road option has been missing from the menu of spiritual choices for too long. For longer still others have decided what matters and what doesn’t. As a result, the narrow road focus may have “fallen through the cracks”. What if these "others" are based on “cherry-picked” PC incomplete information? Can you find the narrow road from cruising down the wide road, or from an “expert” who may be ignorant of its vary existence? We need to to be aware that there is a narrow road and to seek it.
Reasons
Obviously Jesus exposed this subject to prepare us, His saints, for this truth and to influence us toward His narrow road standard, like building on the rock. Jesus Himself stated that only a few will find Jesus’ Narrow Road, ONLY THOSE WHO WILL BE DEDICATED, PAY ATTENTION AND PERSEVERE. Unfortunately within most of the the traditional church, the reality is that it is impossible to train a baby in anything until they’ve grown out of their infancy, stopped spoon feeding, and until they become self feeders. Since traditional church members require weekly spoon feeding, and aren’t self feeders yet, they’re unaware of a narrow road altogether. In defense of the newbies, everyone and everything does have a growing cycle, Jesus did infer a 3 year timeframe for fruitfulness.
Jesus knew that empowerment is imparted to only self-feeding disciples abiding in Jesus’ teaching and in unison with Holy Spirit. Empowerment is sourced from Holy Spirit, but applied and exerted by our own faith. Since faith is derived from our personal belief, knowledge, and truth awareness and choices, knowing Jesus’ accomplishments and teachings would seem imperative to develop faith. Two reports that can begin to align each believer with new kingdom standards and a narrow road foundation, as they become aware of and abide in these truths, are FINISHED and Jesus’ Inaugural Address.
Answers
If you’ve been painfully seeking for missing answers and effective guidance, you’ll be happily surprised at what kind of intelligence is delivered below. When we become increasingly desperate for effective guidance Holy Spirit will always deliver. These reports are both eye witness testimonials and revelation teachings. I truly hope these reports help you breakthrough to more of God’s favor, provision, prosperity, healing, enlightenment, and empowerment. God’s will is that each believer becomes like Him, and since Jesus reconciled us directly to God, the renewing of our mind is required to abide in that.
Options
Even though the road is narrow, and even though few will find it, we can choose Jesus, His teachings, and choose to show up for class with our personal Tudor, Holy Spirit. Remember Jesus also said many are called but few have selected (Matthew 22:14), regarding His wedding feast invitation. That alternative option is ready and waiting for anyone who will select Jesus. Choose His narrow road and build your life on Jesus’ solid rock ASAP.
Faith That Prevails
Smith Wigglesworth
Smith Wigglesworth (8 June 1859 – 12 March 1947), was a British evangelist who has been very influential in many Christian disciples lives. He began as a shy plumber and God used him to demonstrate the gospel in many ways. He preached, healed, prophesied, delivered, and intervened for many people. He was a very humble servant, as a man's man, the real deal!
Bio
Smith Wigglesworth was born on 8 June 1859 in Menston, Yorkshire, England, to an impoverished family. As a small child, he worked in the fields pulling turnips alongside his mother; he also worked in factories to help provide for his family. He was illiterate as a child because of his labors.
Nominally a Methodist, he became a Christian at the age of eight. His grandmother was a devout Methodist; his parents, John and Martha took young Smith to churches on regular occasions. He was confirmed by a Bishop in the Church of England, baptized by immersion in the Baptist Church and had the grounding in Bible teaching in the Plymouth Brethren while learning the plumbing trade as an apprentice from a man in the Brethren movement.
Wigglesworth married Polly Featherstone on 2 May 1882. At the time of their marriage, she was a preacher with the Salvation Army. Wigglesworth learned to read after he married Polly; she taught him to read the Bible. He often stated that it was the only book he ever read, and did not permit newspapers in his home, preferring the Bible to be their only reading material.

Excerpt: All lack of faith is ...
All lack of faith is due to not feeding on God's Word. You need it every day. How can you enter into a life of faith? Feed on the living Christ of whom this Word is full. As you get taken up with the glorious fact and the wondrous presence of the living Christ, the faith of God will spring up within you. "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God" (Romans 10:17).
Excerpt: Two Kinds of Faith
There are two kinds of faith. There is the natural faith. But the supernatural faith is the gift of God. In Acts 26:19 Paul is telling Agrippa of what the Lord said to him in commissioning him. "To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in Me."
Faith That Prevails
In this book, you will learn about faith from one of the greatest men of God. He saw many people healed miraculously by the power of God through his hands. Everything from cancer to back pain. As you read this, claim this faith as your own, then ask God that you too may move in such power.
The Price Of God's Miracle Working Power
Who Was AA Allen?
A. A. Allen was clearly one of the most important revivalists to emerge in the early days of the healing revival and was one who ploughed on with grass-roots healing revivalism for over twenty years until his death in 1970. Charismatic and controversial, this comparative latecomer to the revival was known as ‘the boldest of the bold’ amongst his peers and loved by thousands of his followers.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
- DID YOU EVER WONDER WHY SOME HAVE A GREATER PRESENCE OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OR ANOINTING OF GOD THAN OTHERS WHO MINISTER?
- WHEN GOD IS FAR OFF, HOW DOES THIS EFFECT OUR PERFORMANCE?
- MUST I IDENTIFY PERSONAL DISTRACTIONS AND WHAT RESTRICTS GOD?
- DO I KNOW WHAT STANDS BETWEEN ME AND GOD'S POWER?
- DOES GOD'S EFFECTIVENESS INCREASE WITH MORE OF HIM?
- DOES MORE OF GOD REQUIRE LESS OF US AND SPENDING TIME TRANSFORMING?
- CAN I BECOME CLOSER TO GOD AND MORE EFFECTIVE, LIKE JESUS?
Motivations and Reasons
It is always interesting to get the perspective on things from the person who is experiencing these miracles. It is good that he is willing to be transparent enough to share with us the events that happened to him, that brought him over the thresh-holds into new benchmarks. A.A. Allen documented many important issues for the body of Christ. I thought he did a great job. I received this from a Healing Rooms Associate, cleaned up the typo’s, added the TOC hyperlink values, but never changed anything. It is his original work.

Excerpt: Distanced
Did you ever drive across the prairie, and note in the distance a mountain? At first sight the mountain seems very small. But as you drive on, and come closer to the mountain, you are astonished to see how rapidly it seems to grow. Really, the mountain isn't growing. It is still the same size as when you first observed it. The difference is that you have drawn closer to the mountain. This is exactly what takes place when God "increases." He is the same God to all men. But to some people, He seems to be a little, shriveled up, impotent God, who can scarcely be expected to do anything that really matters. The reason for this is that these people are living TOO FAR AWAY FROM HIM! This is why we are instructed, "Draw nigh to God." James 4:8.
God is far away from many people because they have allowed so many things to come in between. Some even draw nigh to God with their mouth, while their heart is far from Him. (Matt. 15:8.) Of these He says, "In vain do they worship me." The only way that it is possible to draw near to God, is to begin earnestly, with all your heart to search out those things which come between, and GET RID OF THEM!
AA Allen Excerpts
PRIDE
Pride certainly will keep God at a distance. "The proud he knoweth AFAR OFF." Psalm 188:6. God cannot work WITH you when He is FAR FROM you. You must come to Him humbly.
EXCUSES
Some have excused the lack of power in their lives, by saying, "The day of miracles is past. The church is established now, and it doesn't need miracles any more." Nowhere does the scripture confirm any such thought. "Jesus Christ (is) the SAME, yesterday, today and forever." Heb. 13:8.
SEPARATED
Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: BUT YOUR INIQUITIES HAVE SEPARATED BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR GOD." Isa. 59:1,2. Don't blame God for your lack of power. Put the blame squarely where it belongs. YOU are too far from God, because there are too many iniquities (sins) in between.
Friends and loved ones may come between. Jesus said, "He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." Matt. 10:37.

The Life of Trust
Who Is George Muller?
George Müller (born Johann Georg Ferdinand Müller, 27 September 1805 – 10 March 1898) was the director of the Ashley Down orphanage in Bristol, England, then began to evangelize internationally. He cared for 10,024 orphans during his lifetime, and provided educational opportunities for the orphans to the point that he was even accused by some of raising the poor above their natural station in British life. He established 117 schools which offered Christian education to more than 120,000 children.
Why is George so significant?
What is really interesting is that he did all of this while never raising funds, never taking up a collection, and never sought financial partners. He merely asked God, like Jesus said to. Muller’s faith demonstrated Jesus’ teachings to ask God alone. Well God did hear, and God did supply resources; cash, food, books, and a very large building complex. Total estimated funding by God is estimated at well over $100 million in today's money. God will do the same for us who seek Him, wait on Him, and ask Him for His help and favor.
