By redemption, the believer is ordained to enjoy the life of signs and wonders Isa. 8:18; Mk. 16:17. An individual at the point of experiencing salvation through accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour is translated from a mere person existing only in the physical world, into a spirit being with capacity to command the supernatural Col. 1:13-14. This translation is what initiates the believer into the world of signs and wonders.

Forgive me my sins; wash me with your blood. I believe you died for me, on the third day you rose again that I may be justified. Right now, I believe that my sins are forgiven; I’m justified by your blood; I’m born-again; I’m saved; I’m a child of God; I’m free from the power of sin to serve the living God. Thank you Jesus for receiving me; thank you Jesus for restoring me; thank you Jesus for saving me.”
