The Nature of God’s Miracles
We often find ourselves in awe of God’s miracles that are present around us every day. These miraculous acts are an extension of God’s love and power. They remind us that He is still actively involved in our lives today. Miracles can be small, such as the everyday blessings we often overlook, or large, such as national healings and extraordinary interventions in our lives. As we recognize these manifestations of divine love, we become aware that our God has not changed. Even in these modern times, He continues to perform His miracles, showing His faithfulness to His people. This encourages us to trust Him in all circumstances, knowing that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work in our lives.

Thus, faith doesn’t just help us believe in miracles; it is the very instrument through which we can experience them. By nurturing our faith, we open ourselves to witness God’s miraculous work in and around us, reminding us that He is always working, even in unseen ways.

The Bible assures us that by His stripes, we are healed, and that prayer is a channel through which healing can flow. When we come together in faith, we witness amazing miracles that glorify God. As we look at those who have experienced healing, it strengthens our belief and ignites hope in our hearts, reminding us of God’s eternal goodness and mercy.
