Don’t Wait on God for Your Miracle

Mark Brazee

What if you need a miracle, but God doesn’t move sovereignly through the gifts of the Spirit to give you one? Don’t be surprised if He doesn’t; He never promised He would. In fact, God didn’t design the gifts of the Spirit for the Church . . .

God expects believers to believe—and use faith to initiate miracles.

Don’t Wait on God for Your Miracle
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. — Romans 1:17

What if you need a miracle, but God doesn’t move sovereignly through the gifts of the Spirit to give you one? Don’t be surprised if He doesn’t; He never promised He would. In fact, God didn’t design the gifts of the Spirit for the Church. He intended them to be divine “advertisements” or signs to an unsaved world.

Of course, God loves us so much that He does manifest spiritual gifts among Christians for our blessing, but He doesn’t expect us to sit and wait to be blessed by a sovereign move of His Spirit.

How do I know that? Look at 2 Corinthians 5:7: “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” Notice this verse does not say, “For we walk by the sovereignty of God, and we hope He operates quickly.” Nor does it say, “For we sit back and wait for God to move on our behalf, even if it takes forty years.” No, it says we walk by faith—not sight.


What happens if a person walks by faith? The same thing that happened to the woman of Canaan in Matthew 15:28: “O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt.”

God expects believers to believe—and use faith to initiate miracles. So don’t sit back and wait! Go to God’s Word and find out His will; then reach out by faith and take hold of what already belongs to you.

Confession
I walk by faith and not by sight. Jesus’ body was broken for me so I could live free from sickness and pain. I receive my healing now by faith.

The Blind Demoniac

David Jeremiah
Satan is in the Eye-Blinding Business. The Bible warns that the “god of this age” has blinded the minds of unbelievers “lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them” (2 Corinthians 4:4).
Every Christian is a steward of God—He has provided—we are to be faithful.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

To Be Found Faithful

David Jeremiah
The earliest, and still the best, biblical example of a steward is Joseph—the favorite son of Jacob who was sold as a slave into Egypt by his jealous brothers. So rich was the blessing of God on Joseph that his Egyptian master, the wealthy Potiphar, made Joseph the overseer and manager (steward) of his entire household.
If we sow a godly action, we will reap a godly blessing.

God’s Harvest Law

David Jeremiah
Just as there are laws in the physical realm, so there are laws in the spiritual realm. One found in Galatians 6:7 is the universal Law of the Harvest: “… for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.”
Certainly the fear of God includes awe and reverence, but it does not exclude literal holy terror.

The Truth of Love Needs the Truth of Wrath

John MacArthur
People often try to explain the sense of these verses away by saying that the “fear” called for is a devout sense of awe and reverence. Certainly the fear of God includes awe and reverence, but it does not exclude literal holy terror.
The expression of His wrath and the expression of His love are both necessary to display His full glory.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Love and Wrath Not at Odds

John MacArthur
God’s love cannot be isolated from His wrath and vice versa. Nor are His love and wrath in opposition to each other like some mystical yin-yang principle. Both attributes are constant, perfect, without ebb or flow. God Himself is immutable—unchanging.
