there is a part of the story I just remember, the reason the Bully was chasing Jason in the first place was because the Bully was beating another kid up and Jason pointed his finger at him and yelled "repent Bully"
you have it admit it's cute

Re: Have you ever seen a miracle?
Forgot to mention that we prayed for 2 people at a native reserve who could not get around without a cane. Both dropped their canes and walked around with total ease after prayer. One of them hopped up and down and shouted for 45 minutes later. The other got up the next day and realized he did not take his cane as usual since his legs were fine.

Re: Have you ever seen a miracle?
Most seem to be unaware of the fact that the book of Acts is the acts of the Apostles. In that record it appears that only Apostles are seen doing the "sensational" type of miracles. An Apostle obviously will have a greater anointing than the average anointed saint.
I have a journal of things I consider to be signs or wonders the Lord has allowed me to experience in my walk. There are now over 100 of them. Most are dreams that have come to pass. There are some answered prayers. Some times of being led by the Spirit.
The most notable healing was when a fellow I worked with hurt his back so bad he was ready to go home. I asked if I could pray for him. He said Ok so I laid hands on him and prayed and he was healed on the spot. He then went around the Shop telling everyone what had happened.

God doesn't have to give us "showy" miracles, but he gives us miracles anyway. We just don't always notice.

Re: Have you ever seen a miracle?
doesn't fly, cindy. THESE SIGNS SHALLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE... I think the problem is that we don't believe. 2000 yrs later and for the most part, the church is still laying the foundation and drinking milk.

He does show us, Houston. But we are so wrapped up in what I want, instead of what He wants. Sometimes we are so busy looking for signs that we miss Him.

Re: Have you ever seen a miracle?
Here is a major reason we dont see more than we do.
3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. 1 John 3:22
We have been taught keeping the commands of Jesus is legalism. Rather it is an expression of our love for Jesus that he will bear witness to by manifesting his reality in answered prayer.

Re: Have you ever seen a miracle?
Seems like IZZY has been going to the wrong church! Everywhere I go I see Miracles and have all my life - of course I go to churches that preach the Miracle Power of Jesus Christ. If I went to a church and they did not believe, teach & demonstrate the Miraculous and the Supernatural, I would leave and change churches.
Could someone point IZZY to a Church in his area that believes and demonstrates the Power of God?

I think the miracles were occurring most precisely at the time of establishment of foundational truths.
After Jesus prophesied that signs would follow them that believe, did it come to pass? It is not something we need to stress out over - and try to fulfill.
If the word is spoken He will bring it to pass by the Spirit that works within.
