A Miracle by definition is an
effect or extraordinary event in
the physical world that surpasses
all known human or natural
powers and is ascribed to a supernatural
cause.
Wikipedia defines a miracle
as an event not understandable
by natural or scientific laws.
The word miracle is often
used to characterize any beneficial
event that is statistically
unlikely.
John 5:1-9 After this there
was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus
went up to Jerusalem. Now there
is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate
a pool, which is called in Hebrew,
Bethesda, having five porches. In
these lay a great multitude of sick
people, blind, lame, paralyzed,
waiting for the moving of the
water. For an angel went down at
a certain time into the pool and
stirred up the water; then whoever
stepped in first, after the stirring
of the water, was made well
of whatever disease he had. Now
a certain man was there who had
an infirmity thirty-eight years.
When Jesus saw him lying there,
and knew that he already had
been in that condition a long
time, He said to him, “Do you
want to be made well?”
The sick man answered
Him, “Sir, I have no man to
put me into the pool when the
water is stirred up; but while I
am coming, another steps down
before me.”
Jesus said to him, “Rise,
take up your bed and walk.”
And immediately the man was
made well, took up his bed, and
walked. And that day was the
Sabbath.
More than likely, this man
was born paralyzed and was now
38 years old and was searching
for a cure.
We were not born with
life-controlling issues but they
were issues that came after time
and because of our poor decisions.
When we get into bondage
to our controlling issue or
when we are attacked by the
enemy and become possessed,
depressed, addicted or sick, we
all begin to look for relief.
Some of us will get to a
point in which we become content
in our situation and think
we are okay, until the doctor
