God of Wonders

When we were a lot younger, after fasting and praying one of us went back home being hungry believed God for a miracle – the miracle of food because there was nothing at home to eat. She brought a plate, placed it on a table and started praying. After a while, she will open her eyes, only to find that the plate is empty as it was before she started praying. She repeated this, over and over again, and got the same result. At a point, she got tired and had to stop because she was very tired. When she opened the door, a woman was standing there, with food for her. The woman has been standing there waiting for her to finish praying.

All God requires of us is faith – only believe he will do it. There are times when God enables a believer to have faith for, and expect, an extraordinary demonstration of God’s power. The impossible becomes when this gift is in operation.

"Because you're not yet taking God seriously," said Jesus. "The simple truth is that if you had a mere kernel of faith, a poppy seed, say, you would tell this mountain, "Move!' and it would move. There is nothing you wouldn't be able to tackle."

(Matthew 17:20, MSG)

God is not a magician; he does things in his own way and in his own time. Man’s wisdom is foolishness before God. We should not always want things done our way, or just the way we want it. God knows the better ways to give an answer to that which worries us.

Have you ever been worried that you prayed for the sick or for a God to demonstrate wonders and it is not fort coming or it did not happen as you prayed? Any problem or questions we may have regarding healing or unanswered prayers may defy answers in this life. Nevertheless, we can be rest assured that the things we see as unanswered prayers, He has things under control and wants us to put our complete trust in Him.

God still stands ready to intervene in our impossible situations when we pray. God’s Word declares that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much (James 5:16). Believe God, have faith, step out in your new found and renewed faith in God, and you will be in for unprecedented surprise.
