GOD WORKS MIRACLES THROUGH THOSE WHO BELIEVE

Mark 6: 2
When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed.
“Where did this man get these things?” they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable miracles he is performing?

 Two more greek words to explain the term "MIRACLE":

- DUNAMIS 

Powerful works by the hands of him.

- ERGA
the works that the Father has done through Jesus and that he wants to do through each of us.

 
We must believe because Jesus has already accomplished it. Many people get desperate and blame God but what God said is "yes" and "Amen".

Miracles do not happen alone, they do not happen on request but they happen because there is a close collaboration between God and man.

Giovanni 5:36
I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the works that the Father has given me to finish—the very works that I am doing—testify that the Father has sent me.

Without everyone's collaboration, God cannot work and man needs God to receive the best in his life.

God wants to work through everyone's life; God wants to work miracles through people.

Exodus 4: 2-4
The Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A staff.” ³ And he said, “Throw it on the ground.” So he threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent, and Moses ran from it. ⁴ But the Lord said to Moses, “Put out your hand and catch it by the tail”—so he put out his hand and caught it, and it became a staff in his hand.

God is always looking for something you have, and it gets your attention.

God prepared in Abraham, as in all generational families; but you must be aware of what you have, otherwise you will never be able to use it.

Until you realize what you have in your hand, God will not be able to use it, the first impact you will have with the supernatural is fear of putting out your inabilities.

God through the episode of Moses asks to look at the supernatural reality.

To enter the supernatural, one must have courage and overcome one's fears.

To operate it takes courage, even that of having to make mistakes.

In the mindset of God, the mistake we make is a process leading to a transformation and a change.

Even if he is wrong, God encourages.

Unbelief is an obstacle that prevents you from working in the supernatural in God's will and in miracles.

In God's mindset, mistake is a learning process.

The first miracle that Jesus performed was not what the uninspired gospels show.

Jesus began to operate at the age of 30 and his first miracle was a sign within the family (that of transforming water into wine) and it happened within a marriage.

John 2: 7
Jesus said to them, "Fill the containers with water." And they filled them to the brim.

 
For what reason?

Because in God's original intention, the family must dominate the earth, as he himself established it.

Jesus uses helpful people.
