miraclesWITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE
I am excited you have decided to join me on this incredible journey through the New Testament Gospels.  Matthew, Mark, Luke & John record many amazing stories, teachings and miracles performed by Christ.  In the next forty days we will focus upon the many miracles Christ performed.

MIRACLES
The disciples came to Jesus privately and ask, “Why could we not cast it out?”
Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. 21 However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”  Matthew 17:14-21 (NKJV)

Nothing is impossible for GOD.  There is no problem, sickness or situation that can stop GOD’S miracle working power.  This scripture reminds us that it is not a lack of God’s power, but a lack of our faith.  And faith is something that grows.  Scripture tells us, “faith comes by hearing, and hearing the WORD of God.”  Again, thank you for joining me in this FAITH journey.

PRAYER
Lord Jesus, I pray that you open my heart to receive your WORD.
Lord Jesus, I pray that you plant a “mustard seed” of faith within my heart.
Lord Jesus, I pray that in the next forty days, as I read and pray through your WORD that your MIRACLE working power will be poured out in our community, church, family and my life.
