Miracles Now – Back to The Basics

Discover Dr. Bill Winston’s foundational teachings on activating your miracle-working ability through faith, confession, and the power of the Holy Spirit. This essential guide, drawn from the “Miracles Now – Back to The Basics” series, provides practical steps to stop the devil’s takeover, transfer wealth, and fulfill your Kingdom destiny by aligning your words and beliefs with God’s infallible Word.

1. The Urgency of Miracles Now: No More Waiting

Dr. Bill Winston emphasizes that the time for miracles and breakthroughs is now, not later. Believers must reject the system of waiting and embrace immediate results, driven by the belief that their Born Again spirit is able to produce immediately.

Rejecting Limiting Beliefs

Jesus promised to root out “every tree in you that the father didn’t plant”. This includes:

• The belief that you have to wait.
• The belief that things can’t be done for you because of your background.
• The belief that you can’t come up with solutions because you lack specific training (e.g., an engineering program).
• All guilt and shame about your past.

The church is entering its finest hour, and there should be no more delays. Miracles are necessary now, not just for physical healing, but also in the marketplace, education, government, business, and economics.

2. The Believer’s Mandate: Transforming the World

God did not send believers to be delivered by the world; they are the solution and the light. God put you on this earth and specifically planted you where you are—in your job, city, or community—on purpose.

You Are the Light in Darkness

The purpose of being left in the world is to convert the world.

• A light shines brightest in darkness; the darker it is, the brighter the light.
• You are the church; you do not need to quit your job to “work for the church.” You are planted there to manage it, transform it, and clean it out.
• Your promotion comes from the Lord, not from kissing up to a supervisor.

Supernatural Ability and Wisdom

Every believer receives power, which is miracle-working ability. Wherever you go, miracles can take place.

• Divine Knowledge: God expects the church to be at a level where it can answer the problems of the world. You are going to have a whole different level of learning and will know more than all your teachers.
• Example of Jesus: Jesus knew so much—more than if he had gone to a big school like MIT—because the Word was in Him.

3. Activating Power: Confession, Decree, and the 4D Realm

The core of Dr. Winston’s teaching centers on the supernatural mechanism of speaking the Word of God to decree the invisible and command the impossible.

The Power of Decree (Job 22:28)

The Word of God is the most powerful thing that exists, and it will not return void. When faith comes from hearing the Word, the mouth speaks, and a decree is established.

• Decree the Impossible: You are going to speak the invisible and decree the impossible. Everything around you must change if you don’t change.
• No Weapon: No weapon formed against you shall prosper.
• Prophetic Forecasting: When you confess your expected outcomes (like sales figures or financial goals) before men, you are making a decree that activates the supernatural to bring it to pass.

The Wealth Transfer and 4D Living

The wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just; the wicked are just holding it for you. Believers are called to transfer money from the enemy’s account into their own account.

• Beyond 3D: The days of achieving results solely in the 3D realm (through natural effort and time) are over. You must do things on another level.
• Envisioning Angels: You should envision angels with bags of money flying to your house. Money cometh into you now.
• God’s Provision: God can use any circumstance to provide, whether it’s a fish with money in its mouth or unexpected favor at a fashion show.

4. Overcoming Resistance: The Enemy’s Strategy

The devil’s job is to stop the church from taking the lead and keep believers in bondage.

The Devil’s Takeover

The enemy is trying to take over your kids and perpetuate problems like carjacking in Chicago. God is depending on you to take His Word and apply it to every situation to get results.

Satan’s Counter-Attack

Satan’s primary strategy against the confessing believer is to get them to step out of faith and get mad at somebody. God commands you to stand in faith and stay in love.

Examples of Resistance and Victory

• Daniel: Daniel resisted the system of Babylon (eating pork, bowing to false gods) and refused to leave Jesus and rely on his own ability. When thrown into the fire, he was delivered, ultimately leading the King to change laws and decree that every nation should speak of their God.
• Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: King stood on scripture (Amos 5:24) to change segregation and push for justice. He could not be touched in jail because he was operating from the Kingdom system.
