What if God is trying to do something miraculous in your life? What if he is preparing to make things happen? What if the very thing you have been seeking is available to you, but the path there will make absolutely no sense to you? I’m asking will you trust the God of miracles to work on your behalf?

Psalm 77:14 MSG – “You’re the God who makes things happen; you showed everyone what you can do.”

Don’t you know your God is the one who makes things happen?

Jesus Culture has a song called Miracles. The lyrics say:

The One who made the blind to see
Is moving here in front of me, he’s moving here in front of me
The same God who has given sight to the blind is here today to help you see. Help you see your way. Help you see the next step right in front of you. Won’t you let him help you see? Won’t you trust he can show you what to do next?

Why is it easier for us to believe Jesus rubbed mud in a blind man’s eyes and gave him sight, than to believe he can show up in your life today and show you exactly what to do now? Why do we limit God’s miracles to the big things and not believe they apply to us right here, right now on this ordinary Thursday at the end of May in the middle of your reality? Hey, you and I don’t have to be blind for God to help us see.

The song goes on to say:

The One who made the deaf to hear
Is silencing my every fear, he’s silencing my every fear
How loud is the voice of fear and doubt in your ear? How many thoughts and possibilities are immediately talked down right in your own head with all the reasons it can’t and won’t work? Your fears are robbing you of the very life God created you for. Your doubts are the thief stealing your potential for more.

Don’t you know the one who made the deaf to hear can help you silence those fears? Would that be a miracle if you could overcome the voice of fear that has spoken to you your entire life? Why yes, yes it would be! Don’t you see, this is what God wants to do for you. You don’t have to be handicap without the ability to hear for God to come into your life and heal you. Listening to the wrong voices is just as much as a handicap as being unable to hear. The God of miracles can take care of that for you today.

If you lost your sight today, wouldn’t you seek God for a miracle? If you lost your hearing today, wouldn’t you fall to your knees and ask God to restore you? Then why wouldn’t we ask the God of miracles to help us see what to do next? Why wouldn’t we ask the God of miracles to help us silence the voice of fear we’ve been listening to? Why would we wait for absolute disaster before seeking his touch?

God wants you to know something today. He wants you to know his miracles are available for you right now. He can make things happen. HE IS THE GOD WHO MAKES THINGS HAPPEN! AND HE’S YOUR GOD WHO WANTS TO GET TO WORK ON THINGS FOR YOU TODAY! You don’t have to wait until things get worse. You don’t have to wait until it’s completely hopeless. He wants to guide you today. He wants to help you see the way today. He wants to help you with this next step today. He’s not trying to make things harder for you. Believe it or not, he is on your side.
The one who does the impossible is reaching out to make you whole. Reaching out to make you whole. And all you have to do to receive it is simply say “I believe in you. I believe in you.” He is asking for your faith today. Faith that he is capable. Faith that he sees you. Faith that he is reaching out to you. Faith that he can make you whole. Faith that he can help you see. Faith that he can help you silence all the other voices. Faith that he can make things happen.

I believe in you God.

He does the impossible. He is the God of miracles. And sometimes those miracles look like a blind man receiving sight, while other times it looks more like the exhausted mom receiving direction for today. Sometimes those miracles look like the deaf made to hear again, while other times it looks like the courage to apply for that job, the grace to care for that which has been given to you, and the strength to show up again today. All your life he’s been making things happen. The enemy’s plan should have taken you out a long time ago, but you’re here!
Receive your miracle today. All God is asking for you to do is to say “I believe in you. You are my God of miracles.” Will you believe?

Believe that he can show you the way.
Believe that he can guide you.
Believe that he is in this with you, working on your behalf.
Believe that he can silence your fears.
Believe that he can speak to you.
Believe that he can make you whole.
Believe that he is all you need.
He is everything.

Because he is.
He is guiding you.
He is working for you.
He is silencing your fears.
He is speaking to you.
He is making you whole.
He is all you need.
He is the one who makes things happen.
