Today's Thoughts: Miracles

"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will
do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.”
John 14:12

Does God work miracles today, or did all miracles cease with the last of the apostles?
This is a question that has occupied theologians for many years. I counter with my own
question: "Is God dead?" A miracle is a supernatural happening. If God is still alive and
still working, then there will be supernatural happenings. Therefore, the days of miracles
cannot be over.

Salvation is a miracle. The rich young ruler, who came to Jesus seeking the way of
salvation, finally went away sorrowful. Jesus turned to His disciples and said, "It is hard
for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. It is easier for a camel to go through the
eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." The puzzled disciples
replied, "Who then can be saved?" Jesus answered, "With men this is impossible, but
with God all things are possible" (Matthew 19:23-26).

If a miracle is achieving something that is humanly impossible, then salvation is a


miracle because it is humanly impossible for man or woman to save himself or herself.
So to say that the days of miracles are over would be to deny that people can be saved
today. Let’s thank God that the days of miracles are not over; He is still in the business
of working miracles.

Do you believe that God is the same today, yesterday and forever? If so, then pray for
the impossible and believe that Jesus is still working miracles today. Put your faith in
action and ask the Lord to use you in amazing ways.

Our mission is to evangelize the lost and awaken the saved to live empowered lives by
the Work of God and His Holy Spirit. Daily Disciples Ministries makes a difference for
the kingdom of God by teaching and training believers how to be in God's Word, how to
pray and how to walk with Jesus every day, as His daily disciple.
