HE WANTS TO WALK YOU TO YOUR MIRACLE
Throughout the majority of miracles recorded in Scripture, God’s responses were rarely instantaneous. Rather, He always dug deeper to ask probing questions and challenge peoples’ faith. Why? Because He is not satisfied in being our Miracle Maker. He wants to be Lord. He longs for us to seek Him on a continual basis and not merely presume upon His power.
Decreeing and declaring God’s promises has its place, but it should never replace a sensitivity to His voice and a willingness to change course on the journey. In many of these examples, God was not focused on their breakthrough, but was looking to establish their faith, deepen their love, and build them up as mighty warriors for His purpose. The miracles simply followed as the result of their obedience.
When we allow Him to walk us to our miracle we are shown His true nature and a depth of fellowship that is otherwise inaccessible. He may not give us our breakthrough on a silver platter, but He will refine our hearts as pure gold. He will use our need as a means to a greater end. Because in seeking our miracle, we will end up finding Him. And that’s the breakthrough HE’S looking for.
