Prayer and Miracles

What is a Miracle? To have food on the table when the kitchen is stocked with groceries is not. To be able to walk with a good pair of legs is not. Miracle is not something that you know you can do, its not something that you are quite sure about. It is something that occurs when you have nearly no hope but yet have some degree of hope, expectation in.

Are Luck and Miracle synonyms? No, I usually don't use the word 'lucky' its something that should be outside a Christians dictionary. Technically Luck can be described as an occurrence that you didn't at all have a hope for. As Christians we always have a hope no matter how feeble it may be.

Prayer, righteousness, a step in faith, reading and hearing the Word, fellowship of Christians keep our hope aglow. As Christians we have a hope that will not be cutoff, our hope is not merely in our own efforts, abilities, money and influence but in the Creator through His Word guided by the Holy Spirit.

Our hope and source for Miracles is our God, He performs miracles, they can be expected in any realm - physical, mental, spiritual and social. He changed our hearts, He saved us, He is Keeping us in Him. If He has given us a hope, a hearts desire for something, lets press on, our expectation will not be cut off, we shall possess our Miracle.
