The company of the prophets said to Elisha, “Look, the place where we meet with you is too small for us. 2 Let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a pole; and let us build a place there for us to meet.” And he said, “Go.”3 Then one of them said, “Won’t you please come with your servants?” “I will,” Elisha replied. 4 And he went with them. They went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees. 5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. “Oh no, my lord!” he cried out. “It was borrowed!” 6 The man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float. 7 “Lift it out,” he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it. 2 Kings 6:1-7
The bible is
full of documented miracles performed by prophets, such as Elisha, the
Disciples, and of course Jesus Christ. Each one required a test of faith to see
it through. Many who witnessed these miracles were awed, which in turn changed their
heart to trust God in all circumstances. Do you believe miracles happen today? Do
you believe they can happen in your life?
“You don’t
have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith
even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from
here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.” Matthew 17:20
Faith is the
main ingredient for miracles to happen in your life. It’s having the belief
that God will hear your prayer and will respond in the appropriate way. But,
you say you’ve prayed before and He never came through with your request. Several
questions to ponder: 1. Did you have faith in God with your request or was it a
shot in the dark hoping He’d respond? 2. Was it answered in another way?
Proverbs 3:5-6
says: Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own
understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your
paths.
God has a
plan for every person on the planet. It’s up to us to discover His plan and
follow it closely. Sometimes that plan doesn’t align with our wishes, and He
uses difficulty to reshape our thinking, so we’ll get on board with the direction
He has for our life.
You need a
miracle. God has the power to fulfill that miracle. Put your faith and trust in
Him and accept the response He gives. His way is best, always has been and always
will be! God bless!
