Miracle is the supernatural intervention of God in the ordinary courseof life; it is beyond human calculations, predictions andmanipulations. No science of any sort can explain it is God at work, itdefiles logic or reasoning, it beats every human imagination. Miracleis different from magic because magic employs the use of the mind,hallucinations and illusions, you can study and learn the art of magic.Magic follows a certain pattern of occurrence but miracle does not.Nobody can study or fully understand how a miracle happens, when itwill happen and the pattern it will take. This is so because themiracle of healing one blind man may be very different from how it willoccur in healing another blind man in the same venue of occurrence. Youcan understand the workings of magic but nobody can understand theworkings of a true miracle. This is true because God Himself alone isthe One that works miracles, but magic is worked by man, it is ascience and as I mentioned earlier, anyone can learn to become amagician. Bible examples of miracles If you read 11Kings4: 1-7, you will learn about the story of a widow woman whose husband,the breadwinner died untimely and was heavily indebted to her husband'screditors who threatened to take away her sons, the collaterals thatwere used in obtaining the loans. This woman cried to the man of God,Elisha who performed the miracle of multiplication of oil. This was amiracle no science of this day can explained, it was supernatural, andyou can't beat that. Jesus attended a wedding at Cana ofGalilee, the wine got finished, they needed a miracle fast, and thestory is in John 2: 3-11. The miracle of all miracles happened whenJesus Christ the son of the Living God turned water into wine beforetheir very eyes, can you beat that? 11Kings 6:25-30, 7:1, 2,16-20. We read here the situation in Samaria when there was a verysevere famine or inflation, it was difficult to survive, and peoplewere already killing their children and eating them as food because ofthe severity of the lack in the entire nation. Suddenly the man of God,Elisha declared that, "by this time of tomorrow, there shall be surplusin the land, people thought that he was crazy, but it happened becauseGod Himself was the One involved in working that miracle. TheBible is full of occurrences of miracles, read your Bible and see Godin action. I have experienced many miracles, God have used me manytimes to perform unimaginable miracles. God have used me, by merelyasking me to speak words of authority into some situations and I haveseen God work His wonders. I have seen so many barren women conceiveand gave birth to children, my friend, miracles are real, they stilloccur. You can witness a miracle in your life too; the starting pointis to give your life to the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.It is as simple as that. Importance of miracles: Miraclesare very important to accomplish God's work in this world to convincethe gainsayers and those in doubt that God is real. Some will notbelieve if they do not see miracles. Miracle can deliver to your handwhat you may have been struggling to achieve for many years withoutsuccess. Miracle is a sign that God is with us, it is very important tosilence the onslaught of the devil or enemies; it keeps their mouthsshut because it is a stamp of God's approval upon our lives. How to enjoy the flow of the miraculous: *   Note that miracles happens in the atmosphere of worship, to experiencemiracles, you must cultivate the habit of constantly worshiping theLord in your church and in your privacy. *    Loving the Lord withall your heart causes a wave of miracles to begin to happen in yourlife and ministry.
