[email protected] slash 21 days. Welcome to day nine. Jesus is a miracle worker. God is at work all around us and miracles are everywhere. If we just open our eyes, acts chapter four, verses 29 and 30 says, now, Lord, look on their threats. And grant to your servants that with all boldness, they may speak your word by stretching out your hand to heal. And that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Jesus, your holy servant, Jesus. It's remarkable. Jesus' earthly ministry was marked by the miraculous blind eyes open. Dead people were raised to life, storms were stilled by his word, and today we are invited to live an expectation of signs and wonders modeling our lives after our miracle working Messiah.
Speaker 0 00:01:15 We need to be confident that nothing is too hard for our God. So pray with me, Lord, we pray for those facing the storms in their lives and desperately need a miraculous breakthrough. Whether physically, spiritually, emotionally, financially, relationally. Father, would you work on their behalf? Would you call the storms in their lives and provide for every need? Lord, we pray for local and global communities that have been disrupted by war and famine, natural disasters that Father, they would receive the miraculous provision of clean water, food, medical, supplies, aid that it would not be stopped by bureaucracy, corruption, or physical barriers. Father, you would stretch out your hand to touch these communities that have been affected by war, famine, and natural disasters. And Lord, we also pray for a bold faith to rise up in our hearts that we would become a people who prayerfully contend for the miraculous, not only in our lives, but in the lives of those around us. We pray all of this in your name, Jesus. Amen.
