WAITING ON A MIRACLE
How many of you
Need a miracle in your life
God knows
I do
A miracle
In your health
Waiting on God
Waiting on a miracle
A miracle
In your marriage
Or in your family
Waiting on God
Waiting on a miracle
A miracle in your finances
I sure could use one of those
I think we all could
Do you know what a miracle is
A miracle is an extraordinary event
Done through the POWER OF GOD
I have ALREADY had a miracle
In my life---OK maybe a few
I’ll bet
If you think about it
Really think about it
I’ll bet
You have had some too
NOT only do you and I
Need a miracle
Our country
Needs a miracle
Our world
Needs a miracle
Waiting on God
Waiting on a miracle
Waiting on
THE EXTRAORDINARY POWER OF GOD
I got some news for you
God is quite capable and willing
All it takes is some FAITH
And some BELIEF
And us turning back to God
God made the world
In seven days
I call that a miracle
God created Adam and Eve
Out of nothing---us too
LIFE itself is a miracle
God told Noah to build a boat
He did---and God SAVED them
I call that a miracle
God gave Abraham and Sarah a child
At a very old age
I call that a miracle
God parted the Red Sea
For Moses and his people
Still another miracle
David slayed Goliath
With a sling shot
Even one more miracle
The key element
In ALL of these miracles
Is that first there was faith
Faith is needed---belief is needed
For God to use his power
To make the unseen---seen
Fast forward to the New Testament
And we find Jesus
Performing MIRACLE AFTER MIRACLE
Healing after healing
A royal official came to Jesus and said,
“Sir, come down before my son dies” John
4:49
Jesus replied,
“You may go---your son will live” John 4:50
When the man returned home
He found his son alive
He inquired as to the time
And found out---it was the exact time
Jesus had said,
“Your son will live”
Waiting on God
Waiting on a miracle
Martha and Mary
Sent word to Jesus,
“The one you love, Lord, is sick”
John 11:3
When he heard this, Jesus said,
“The sickness will not end in death
No it is for God’s glory
So that God’s Son
May be glorified through it” John 11:4
Jesus waited 2 days
Then he and his disciples
Went to Martha and Mary’s house
Through Judea---the place
Where they had just tried to stone him
Jesus said to Martha and Mary,
“Your brother will rise again” John
11:23
Martha answered,
“I know he will rise again
In the Resurrection
At the last day”
John 11:24
Jesus said,
“I am the RESURRECTION and the LIFE
He who believes in me will LIVE
Even though he dies
And whoever Lives and believes in me
Will NEVER die---do you believe that?” John 11:25
& 26
She must have believed---Lazarus lived
And walked the earth again
Do you believe this---Do I
Jesus said to Thomas,
“Because you have seen me
You have believed
Blessed are they who have NOT seen
Yet believed”
John 20:29
Waiting on God
Waiting on a miracle
Maybe all we need to do is
JUST BELIEVE

Today---February 11th---is the feast day of OUR
LADY OF LOUDES
The day of the first apparition of the Blessed Mother to
Saint Bernadette
Lourdes, France is a place where many miracles have occurred
It is ALSO THE DAY that I walked out of the hospital after
my first surgery
Ps WITNESS 7-21-13
A MIRACLE is defines as EXTRAORDINARY events done through
GOD’S POWER
But ALWAYS REMEMBER that God uses the ORDINARY events of
life to show his
EXTRAORDINARY POWER
