What keeps me from seeing more miracles in my life? - Miracles - TouchPoints

Exodus 8:17-19So Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD had commanded them. When Aaron raised his hand and struck the ground with his staff, gnats infested the entire land, covering the Egyptians and their animals. All the dust in the land of Egypt turned into gnats. Pharaoh’s magicians tried to do the same thing with their secret arts, but this time they failed. And the gnats covered everyone, people and animals alike. “This is the finger of God!” the magicians exclaimed to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh’s heart remained hard. He wouldn’t listen to them, just as the LORD had predicted.

You won’t see a miracle if you are too stubborn to believe that a miracle can happen today, or that God won’t perform one on your behalf. Even Pharaoh’s magicians saw this miracle as an act of God, but Pharaoh was too stubborn to admit it. He convinced himself this couldn’t be from the hand of God. When you get rid of pride and stubbornness, you will be surprised to see how much God is doing in your life that you never noticed before.

Psalm 106:2Who can list the glorious miracles of the Lord? Who can ever praise him enough?

Maybe you think a miracle is always a dramatic event like a dead person coming back to life. But miracles are happening all around you that are supernatural occurrences. They may not be as dramatic as the parting of the Red Sea, but they are no less powerful. The birth of a baby, recovery from an illness, the rebirth of the earth in spring, salvation by faith alone, the work of love and forgiveness to change someone, hearing the specific call of God in your life. These are just a few. If you think you’ve never seen a miracle, look closer. They are happening all around you.
