Okay i see there are many who say it is not possible or we shouldn't do it. I admit i have seen ppl pretend to do miracles just to make bank and fool many. But to say God no longer does this,... All i see is doubt and unbelief, not meaning to be mean of course but this is why you do not see these things. I am not seeking a sign from this, but i felt moved to try and who is to say it won't or shouldn't happen? We humans put God in a box so much, but what might happen if one soul decided to believe outside the box and take Gods words as it says when he promises something?
I have seen things on the mission field and even in some churches in the US that are signs, wonders and miracles...I was aksed to pray for a little blind girl in Costa Rica and there was no doubt she was blind, both eyes were dead, anyone could tell that...She was standing in front of me and the sun was coming down right in her face with full intensity that would make you or eye cover our eyes. She did nothing, while her mom and grandma watched and were shielding their own eyes from the sun.
Before I prayed I listened to the Holy Ghost and did exactly what he said. I asked the girl to close her eyes and then put my hands over both eyes and prayed for that little girl and watched as God made both eyes whole. The fact she screamed and covered her eyes when I removed my hands and asked her to open them was pretty much confirmation! She kept shouting how bright it was in Spanish. The girl was 5 years old and blind from birth and the most awesome part of this testimony is when her Momma picked her up and the little girl kept caressing her Mom's face and saying, my Mama es Bonita! Which means" MY MOM IS PRETTY!!
We received confirmation the next night of the revival from her family DR, the girl had been born blind and could see better than an eagle!!
GLORY TO GOD!!! somebody give GOD a praise!
Keep up the faith and don't let those which seek to put God in a box steal your faith, because they have a spirit of unbelief.
Without being rude, there are several posting here that would wet their pants if they ever saw a creative miracle, healing, or the blind see, the lame walk or a deliverance from possession!
I never usually say much on chat boards, but the wolves need to be silenced....YES, God still works miracles today and through PEOPLE, just like he always has and it was not for then and happens in the now all OVER the world. We don't see in the US because of the sheer lack of belief.
I would urge you to get to know any missionaries your church supports and take them to a neutral location like your hosue for lunch and ask them to share what God has done through them..
The biggest failure today is the church thinking they don't have the right, the place or the power and authority and that is not in the Bible, nor was just for signs back in the day, because Jesus said we would do greater works than he did.
Let your faith grow and refuse to let others with lesser faith or belief shake what God has revealed to you!
Don't throw pearls before pigs either....
