The God Of Creative Miracles

 2 Kings 5:1-17

Our text passage is about an interesting experience a great man by the name of Namaan had.

Namaan was a warrior, leader, and right hand man to the king of Syria.

He encountered the creative power of God which caused a creative miracle for him in the area where he needed it, on his skin.

Namaan literally received brand new skin!

Talk about God doing something new for a man!

Namaan was  leprous and leprosy had no cure in those days.

The leprosy had been a long standing problem in Namaan's life.

A miracle fixed a long standing problem in his life that physicians and other remedies could not fix.

God is the specialist!

He specialises in everything good, in every area of life.

Matthew 19:26

He is creative and He grants and works creative miracles.

Namaan was a beneficiary of God's creative miracle, you can be a recipient of creative miracles too.

God has been in the business of working miracles and He hasn't stopped.

He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Through Paul the Apostle God worked "special miracles"

Acts 19:11

Those were creative miracles, a miracle of the order and pattern people had not seen it done in that fashion.

Jesus the Christ also performed special miracles during his earthly experience.

Mark 2:1-12

The ministry of Jesus shows a catalogue of creative miracles.

The words of Jesus, his touch, the clothes of Jesus, and the body of Jesus all produced miracles.

The instructions of Jesus led to miracles.

There are miracles and there are special miracles.

Miracles occur when God intervenes in a matter.

Miracles happen when God suspends natural laws for higher spiritual laws to take over in a life or situation.

Romans 8:1,2

God is sovereign, He rules in the affairs of men.

All miracle types are great and wonderful.

Citizens of God kingdom have a right to trust for them.

We are within our rights to release our faith for miracles.

What makes a miracle a "special miracle" is the impact and perspective of that miracle on people.

If a miracle occurs in a way that's not been seen before, in a way that has not been delivered before, or heard of before it's categorized a special miracle.

A special miracle is an uncommon miracle, an unusual miracle, a creative miracle.

When handkerchief's and aprons were taken from Paul and wonders broke forth through them, it had not been seen like that before.

It is creative in the way that it was delivered, the way it came about and the fact that it's not been seen that way before.

Men who are oracles of God are conduits for creative miracles.

You can release your faith for creative miracles!

God is faithful.

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

Moving Forward Against All Odds

 2 kings 2:8-24 The forty two youths mocking Prophet Elisha in our text passage represent forty two different ways, problems, or odds the enemy can use to try and stop us. It is God's will that you go forward in life (make progress) despite the odds stacked against you. Each challenge, problem, setback, or odd from the enemy to stop you from moving forward is due for a curse. Just like Daniel of old who purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the delicacies from King Nebuchadenezzer's table, purpose in your heart that nothing will stop you from moving forward in God and with God. Daniel 1:8 There are things, issues, circumstances, and people the enemy will raise up to try and stop you. Make up your mind that you will not be stopped, make up your mind that you will not give up. Make up your mind to go all the way with God. Elisha the prophet had just received a double portion of the spirit of his mentor and spiritual father- the prophet Elijah. His miracle an

Trust The Process

 God is a sovereign God who rules in the affairs of men. Daniel 4:32 God is interested in the affairs of His creation and pays attention to every single detail about humanity and all His other works of creation. Luke 12:6,7 That includes you, God is interested in you. Matthew 6:26-32 Since God created you and loves you, you can trust His process for your life. The God who created you knows you. He not only knows you He is intentional about you. Genesis 1:31 He has a plan, a good plan for you. He has an expected end for you. Jeremiah 29:11 This means He has a blueprint for your life. Matthew 6:10 God's having a blue print for your life means there's a pattern God expects your life to follow. It also means there is a process your life has to follow to get to your expected end. It is a process and journey of growth and development. 1 Peter 2:2 It is a process that will bring the best out of you. James 1:2-4 It is a process that will give you a beautiful outcome. It is a process th
