I had a miracle in my life. my mother was healed and given new life on a night she was dying. I'm greatful for the Lord Jesus Christ,

Yes miracles do happen. I myself was so sick 14 years ago. I was dying. I was taken to church, am man of God; a bishop, prayed for me, he told me God had healed me. And that was it. Two weeks later, without my knowledge, my body changed. I regained my health; that is I put on weight(I had grown so thin), my skin looked like that of a young child, my face glowed, I cancelled the operation appointment which upcoming. Since then I have been holding steadfast to Jesus Christ. And Jesus has been holding steadfast to me too

I experience a miracle every day when I open my Bible, read it and pray to become more like Jesus.

God is the same yesterday, today and forever! With God ALL things are possible.

I just recently went to a youth revival camp that lasted for a week. During a praise and worship service, the Holy Spirit was apon us so much, that a youth adult who had been deaf his whole life was healed from his deafness and could hear again. It was the soverign grace of God that poured out unto that boy that healed him from deafness & it was humbling to have witnessed it. God is good.

God I need miracle from terminal illness. I have no hope but in You amen

My daughter was healed of a brain tumour. The doctors called it a most “special case” Jesus is the same yesterday and forever! Praise God👍

Jesus please ask my grandmother to wakeup 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻please please please 🙏🏻🙏🏻 we need miracle 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I want her to be healed ..no one is believing in me because her heal condition is very serious..I believe in God...I believe in him....I know she will be healed 🙏🏻🙏🏻 now ..only miracle can save her ..heal her ....please God help her to be healed ..and prove me true 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 please please please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Of course miracles happen everyday

So in short; Miracles Still Happen.

Thanks for setting the record strait my Pastor.Miracles did not cease with the apostolic age.God bless you sir.

“Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever”?

When we turn someone's frown into a smile, we are using the magic of our love to turn lead into gold and water into wine.

I always wanted God to use me as a tool to heal people that need it. Feels like it’s on me that I’ve failed, or am not living to the standard, which is clearly true. God bless brothers and sisters

Because the gifts confirm the preaching of the gospel. Maybe if more churches were preaching the full gospel we would see more of the miraculous. Many people making up the mass of church attenders have not heard the full gospel and have stopped after ‘accepting’ Jesus, and do not continue pursue God with a burning heart.

I got drunk out of depression 6 years ago , ambulance took me to hospital. My heart stopped on the monitor - they had to reanimate me - Whilst I died I went to Hell - I saw myself in Hell it was horrible ! 3 years later I accepted Jesus as my Saviour. I did a 21 day fast straight away and I met Jesus face to face. He sat next to me . He was Pure , White , Glorious. He took me to Heaven. I have dreams every single night since. Jesus is the same yesterday , today and tomorrow.

*Do Miracles Happen Today?* A throwback Ask Pastor John episode from 2009. Watch below or read the transcript at dsr.gd/1a9lmOW *Key quote:* "Miracles are happening today around the world, in some measure. They can happen more when God is pleased to pour out his Spirit. And the reason it's not as normative now as it was in the apostles' day is because he meant to signify that that point in history - that Incarnation, that authoritative band of apostles - was unique." John Piper

There is miracles happening today.

I am struggling to accept Pastor John's view on this topic. It seems to me the "gradual decay in the manifestation of God's miraculous power" to paraphrase his words is in sharp contradiction if Mark 11:22 and John 14:12.

help us to see and appreciate your miracles Lord and when possible let us be your miracles

We don't see more miracles today because people don't step out in faith anymore. When I was in high school, a guy prayed for my friend's broken leg, and he was instantly healed. He just commanded it to be better, and it got better. And my legs were uneven lengths, and he commanded to grow them out, and they did. He then told me to pray for another person, and their legs grew out. It's that simple. We complicate things with our theology. If you have the Holy Spirit and you speak out in faith, miracles will happen.

the word of God alone is the believers basis of conviction and not our experiences, mark 11:23-24 we can say to the mountain be removed, eph 3:20 there power at work in us,

Lord Jesus, please heal my beautiful newborn girl (Hannah Joy Carter) who potentially has a very rare eye disorder. My heart is deeply broken but I know the God I serve. He writes our stories, we don’t.

Best answer. Can’t stand some cessationists answers

great answer!

Derek Prince said it's like waves. The Living God changeth not. Ive witnessed them firsthand through Mark Hemans ministry yet I myself was not healed although I did receive some deliverance.

Dear God I need a healing miracle. Please heal brain and nervous system disease and cancer

My mother and me we are victims or criminals and injustice. If GOD PERFORMS A MIRACLE THANK YOU GOD IF HE DOES NOT PERFORM A MIRACLE THE SAME BLESS THE NAME OF GOD. AND HAVE HIS WILL WORK ON US. AMEN

there were many miracles in my life. As I drove my car home from work I had a weird feeling while driving. It was dark and I did´t know the road back home. So I prayed to the holy father to bring me home safely. Ten minutes or so he crashed from the right into my car and I spinned untill the car stopped. I found myself squeezed in between two big flower pots. But I felt fine even though I was under shock. Nothing was broken but the car- I was allright and they sent me home from the hospital the same day. The police and the doctor said it was truely a miracle that nothing worse happened. Yes my father brought me home safely just as I asked him. :)

Im prove of healing God healed me

I was waiting for his take on John 14:12 ... but it never came.

They still happen, just temptation and distractions are on the rise, sin is more normalized, biblical christianity and real devotion to God is demonized, we have hospitals and medical care all over so people don't "need" God to heal them, it's just a nice alternative at times. And many more reasons too

God still performs miracles where he sees fit but those men were given special abilities from God because they were spreading a new revelation to the world and they needed the ability to prove themselves from God.

I see them all of the time

Miracles do happen today, but the ways that miracles happened back then with the apostles were directly for the apostles not for every single believer. Miracles such as raising the dead, healing the sick and casting out demons still can happen but it is not because a person has the power to do them but because God and His sovereignty He allows it to happen.

Mark 16:17-18 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

While I respect these men of God, the Cessationist camp does great harm to people's faith. Certainly miracles, healings and other manifestations of the Holy Spirit are for today. If they are happening in mission situations they should be happening and are happening in the Western church as well. This does nothing more than destroy people's hope and faith in God's power. Faith is a definite condition for the release of God's power.

We do experience these miracles today. We do not experience them as often (in certain denominations/people’s) because of our lack of faith/not believing God (our trust in God is much weaker) this is because in our teachings we do not share often enough the testimonies of what God has done, and is doing today. It is our lack of believing God, just like those of Jesus’ home town that Jesus does not do many miracles amongst us Matt 13:58. Matthew says that it is “because of their lack of faith”. Faith is the Greek word pistis, which simply mean trust, assurance, confidence. These men were closer to walking with Jesus and his testimonies were so much more real to them because many witnessed them. It was easier for them to have confidence (faith) in what God said because they had seen it.

PLUS, the CENTRALITY of the WORD.

The ultimate miracle was when Jesus came to pay a debt He did not owe, because we owed a debt we could not pay.

Here is a good example of why I disagree. There was a woman in my church with a bad Migrane headache. She had another christian in our pray for her, and nothing happened. I waited till they were done, then I went to that woman and asked her if I could pray over her. She let me. When I prayed, she felt hot heat go from the top of her head, all the way down to her back. And she was completely healed, instantly. The point is, it does matter where a person prays from, either from pitty or from faith

Can i use your statmen for my vidio sir?

@facialfetus Awesome dude. God is good all the time, and all the time God is good.

many miracles God performs

It's ok, we have been told 'IF' we had faith even only as big as a mustard seed we could move a mountain. So from that i guess most of us haven't been given much (because we are given a 'measure') and God knows it. But yes, they seem to happen as Mr Piper describes nowdays. I've heard orderlies in the hospital say they have just 'up and happened', but then in another case, with prayer, nothing...so only God knows what he is doing and through whom and why. Bless the Lord.

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 Bless You

Spot on, I think! Am sure miracles are happening in remote areas of mission, where God deems it necessary to show his supernatural power so they may believe in the gospel message that is proclaimed. But it is mostly not normative like he said, and that does not mean we are lacking in faith.

YES!!!

Haha, the thumbnail for this video is classic john piper.

Thank

A good question! And, the answer is of course miracles happen. I like how a fellow lover of Christ and stunnning writer GK Chesterton said, "It'd be miraculous if miracles didn't happen at all." And, a more contemporary soul dear to my heart said, "Medicine is itself a miracle. Who says God can't use everyday ways to bring forth miracles?" +++ alms. fasting. prayer.

I've seen my fair share of miracles in missions. And they weren't in an overglamourized crusade. They were real people, who needed to be prayed for. When I go back, I'd really like to talk to them again to see which people that I prayed for are still good. But I have plenty of faith in it. Because I saw people who at first that couldn't see, or couldn't bend over, or could barely touch their toe to the ground, who a month later were still fine. However, that being said, healings aren't evrything

I suppose I agree with the first two conclusions.

@mariuspieter Yes, I have a Bachelor of Applied Science (RMIT).

I don't believe in Miracles, I rely on them - Yogi Bhajan

Well, it's a miracle that people like John Piper are given any degree of credence.

what is the slandered measurement for signs and miracles from the TRUE LORD GOD?

No hate coming from here!

Amen

Miracles, by their very definition are supernatural. If they happened regularly/predictably, then we could describe them as natural, and therefore not miraculous at all. E.g. Jesus turns water into wine - miracle! If everyday I saw people praying and water becoming wine regularly/predictably, it wouldn't be a miracle, but rather a provokable feature of the natural world. And to expect otherwise is to undermine the fantastic natural world God created - if he constantly had to break natural rules, wouldn't it indicate the rules aren't sufficient?

@Imamaltese1 well these people are the people that have that faith that Christ taught us to have, God through Christ has already given us the power to do these miracles and more, it just depends if way say to someone going through pain "Oh, you can get better if God wants you too" but instead saying "Hey, the blood of Christ has already healed you, Christ was on the cross, thinking about you, he shed his blood so that you wouldn't have this pain so now it's gone in Jesus name"

...there is a book written by Tony Tymstra titled; What is possible? ...here is a chapter you may find interesting...the book is available on amazon. THE LITTLE BUTTERFLY PROOF How much more amazing can this planet be? A butterfly returns to the forest four generations later after having never been there before and lands on the same trees as its great grandparents once did, traveling almost 3000 miles and never getting lost. How can that not be proof of something grand in this world? The Great North American monarch butterfly's migration is only one example of nature's seemingly endless number of inspiring mysteries. It is a demonstration of the complex and elegant entanglements that are still hidden from us. Such a testimony quietly compels us to discover and understand the world around us. Before these butterfly sanctuaries were discovered in the late 1970s, people in North America had always wondered where did all these monarch butterflies go. And in a strange twist of beautiful irony, the people in Mexico had always wondered where did all these butterflies come from. These are two different views of the same incredible pilgrimage. This migration is truly one of nature's wondrous revelations because it is not the life of one butterfly that makes this so unusual. It is the life of four generations of butterflies that makes this story complete and causes us to ponder about our own purpose and destiny. This is a beautiful story. The migration starts in the middle of the forest, in the mountains of Michoacán. It is in an area only thirty by fifty miles round. Millions upon millions of butterflies converge in this place to overwinter enjoying the warmth of the Mexican sun. During their stay in this migratory site, the female monarchs become fully developed, and mating takes place. As this first generation begins their spring migration, they fly over mountain ridges to as far north as Texas and to the southern parts of the United States. Here they lay eggs on milkweed plants along the way. This generation soon dies, but in four days, their eggs will hatch into baby caterpillars. These earthbound caterpillars eat ferociously for two weeks before becoming fully-grown. They will then find a quiet and safe place to hide. Here they will start the process of transforming into a chrysalis. For about ten days, the caterpillar will undergo a remarkable transformation called metamorphosis, and soon a beautiful butterfly will emerge. Deeply embedded in their nature, this second-generation somehow knows to continue the journey, and they fly north to the mid-United States and to the lower parts of Canada where they will lay eggs and begin the cycle for the next generation. As the third generation emerges, they will find milkweed plants, eat, breed, and lay eggs, and soon a fourth generation of butterflies is born. When autumn arrives, and the leaves fall, this fourth-generation will fly all the way back to Mexico. Picking up thermals and getting carried aloft on the upper winds. They will travel roughly sixty miles a day. After two months, they will eventually arrive at the same thirty by fifty-mile forested area of that first generation. It will have been a flight of almost 3000 miles without having any knowledge of being there before, and never getting lost on the way. It is an incredible feat. The Monarch Butterfly migration inspires an overwhelming feeling of reverence and admiration for the glory of nature. It is still a mystery as to how they do it. In early Christianity, the butterfly was a symbol of the soul. In China, it was used as a symbol of bliss and joy. People in Australia and New Zealand call the monarch butterfly "the wanderer." To Native Americans, the butterfly is a symbol of joy, color, and change. The butterfly has inspired many poets, thinkers, and writers. Perhaps this is a testimony to the Creator of this world. Is a butterfly proof that a Creator exists? If and when we learn all the mysteries of the world, then perhaps we will know, but the Great Butterfly Migration gives us a glimpse towards that answer.

There are many miracles that occur around the near-death experience.

@mgundy Conversation over - when you start taking my words out of context (and I clearly indicated context by using a numbering system) I cannot continue. I clearly did not at any point infer that infancide was paramount to 'culture clash'. Solidarity comes from interaction within a culture.... you didn't look it up did you? It's like talking to a brick wall. Have a nice ignorant life - and remember - don't check your facts, don't question your teachings and you'll feel blissful for life :)

I agree that miracles happen today and have happened over history, and I agree that miracles can happen anywhere but I don’t agree that it isn’t normal, or I suppose I mean that it should be a normal part of the Christian life.

@simcult The reason why I haven't answered your question, as I have explained, is because we differ on what the criteria of a demonstration is. so no, I do not say that you can't question the claims of the bible, you must just realize that there is a difference in worldview that inhibits further understanding on certain points. Also Unicorns is an agreed upon fact, except among diagnosed insane people, that they are made up by the human imagination, this is not the case with God.

THE WHOLE UNIVERSE AND EVEN OUR EARTH AND LIVES, ARE FULL OF COUNTLESS MIRACLES. WE HAVE ONLY TO OPEN OUR EYES, EARS AND SENSES, AND COME TO RECOGNIZE THEM. LITERALLY, EVERYTHING AROUND AND IN US OUR MIRACLES! SO, WAKE UP AND SEE!

Yes there is and my friend is a real prophet. My daughter saw angels with 7 eyes. Beleieve it or not.

If we were to do the things the Apostles did, say hello to the stake. But it wasn't them that Healed them. It was the Spirit of God.

Healing is part of the Gospel. The Apostles said that the healing was in the name of Jesus and by the faith in His name. People don't have that kind of faith anymore, so they are not seeing those miracles anymore. Faith comes by hearing, we just aren't hearing it, so how can we believe it. The only proof that those who appose healing for today is circumstances--circumstances in the Bible, but circumstances none the less. We should walk by faith and not by sight.

Pastor just said that miracles happen not as often as apostles exercised them, because God chose a certain period of time and unique people for it. That's not for him to say. We are not to take assumptions which are not confirmed by Bible. And if Jesus said we can do all the things He did, then we can. Do you earnestly seek a gift of faith by which all these things and much more other things are accomplished? That is the question.

@AvantGrapes i kno its hilarious!

Depends on what you qualify as a miracle.

Were you there?

@ttty2t1j3 Paul said it best, in the end tongues will cease, healings will cease, prophecy will cease, and all that will remain is faith, hope, and love. And when we are in heaven before our glorious creator, the only thing that will truly matter is the love that we had for others, and the love that we displayed for others. Healings aren't even anything glorious, because there is nothing a person can truly do to heal someone, just pray. God does the rest.

@yeudh You gotta hear His voice, man. He could feed a multitude right before your eyes but if your heart is hardened by sin, you'd rationalize the miracle. Jesus is alive. Ask him to reveal himself to you. He'll honor that prayer every time. Knowing Him is the miracle.

Miracles do happen, yes. But they are clearly not happening as they did in the Apostolic age. They had none of this coming back again and again for progressive healing. It was instantaneous. Most faith healers today are deceived and deceiving others.

@simcult The science that I do agree with is the science that actually analyzes what can be analyzed through science. The problem in most cases as I have found is that atheism and science are quite far removed, slander and atheism are closer to one another, since that is all I get conclusively from atheists

So many opinionated scholars making posts. He never said miracles do not happen. He actually said they do happen, just not on the same scale as when Jesus and his disciples walked the earth. None of us nor anyone we know has seen limbs regrown or the dead, after 4 days, restored to life. The magnitude and volume of miracles changed dramatically after the death of the apostles.

God done the miracles for establishing the his Diety so they can ask which is not temporary so if someone who got new life he always faithful in every circumstances

Miracles can happen every day it's we just don't notice them

Still don't BELIVE and am a pk

watch finger of God

@simcult To #2) It clearly ISN'T BARBARIC TO THEM. Therefore, who defines who's solidarity is correct, or who's shold be taken over the other when they obviously conflict in such a fundamental way? Which leads to why you still haven't answered #3.

@simcult That's a very interesting way to put infanticide... culture clash. Wow, just wow. What I'm getting at is that the ruling "solidarity" would be based on might by your assertion. I'm sure you're fine with that because you live in a place where that isn't currently threatened or will be threatened for the foreseeable future. What I find interesting is the atheist never wants to honestly admit where their "solidarity" originated from.

@33adamwg Look it's pretty damn simple, we live in a world with other people (I hope we can agree on that), in order to live together we NEED to get along. Eating each other is NOT going to help.... right? THAT's called human solidarity, and THAT is where we get our morals from, not some magical invisible man in the sky.

@mariuspieter Umm okay, I'll use evidence and reason to determine what I believe and you use, well... whatever it is that you happen use, good luck to you.

For anyone who is unsure about their salvation please check out Renee Roland on KZfaq, it really is all about Jesus!!

@mariuspieter 1) Amuse me, what method can you possibly use (other than science and reason) to determine whether miracles exist? 2) Again - put yourself in my shoes - if other people have personal experiences with invisible unicorns, that's not sufficient evidence for me to believe it - same with your God. Do you know there are many religions all over the world who have 'personal experiences' with their flavor of religion - do your believe all those people (and the miracles they assert) as well?

@simcult On the same count you could try demonstrating that atheism is the best way to explain everything that happens in this universe, and I bet you will come up short too, so I don't think it is fair to ask me to do so within the limitations of youtube posts

@mariuspieter Lets make it simple. Miracles either happen or don't happen - that's a statement of FACT. So then, very simple question, here it comes... what do you use OTHER THAN science and reason to determine fact?

@dave1122drum lol have you heard of legs getting lengthened? my friend had legs that grew unevenly since one of her legs got broken while she was still growing, so that leg didn't grow during that period, so that leg grew less than the other unbroken one...a man prayed for her, and her legs evened out...not quite a limb growing out of nothing, but it's certainly a restoration of a limb in SOME sense...?

I don’t believe healing happens as much as it did in the apostolic era but that’s not to say that God doesn’t still heal people today by supernatural healing.

@simcult Does that mean that you think that other views of morality are equally viable? If someone thinks cannibalism is acceptable, is that ok for them? You might say that that is wrong because it harms someone besides themself. But again, how do you justify that harming others is wrong? Everyone believes in absolute morality when their own health or property is put in danger.

I'll call your bluff - can you demonstrate any of these 'Supernatural' happenings?

@mariuspieter There is ONE thing Atheism explains - a lack of belief in god(s) - that's it, PERIOD. It does not explain the universe, it does not explain how we got here. It does not require a belief in evolution, it does not require a belief in the big bang. So you can forget about attempting to find 'holes' in Atheism to support your argument - and even if you could find holes, it still wouldn't help your case for a creator.

@dave1122drum no, not a tape measure...what they did was they had her sit in a chair and pushed her flush back against the backrest and she put out her legs so that the difference in length was obvious....they prayed, and they pushed her flush back again, and they found that it was even...my friend was actually stumbling for the next week cuz she wasn't used to walking evenly lol anyway...if you're just gonna continue with a closed mind and explain things away, i'm done here

@candiceevans1 I'm not the one posting videos claiming miracles are real. I am simply calling this video's bluff. I don't believe things because other people have 'personal experiences'. If I had a personal experience with an invisible dragon, would you then believe in invisible dragons?

God can do and does heal and other things as he pleases but the apostles were supposed to have special authority for the purpose of authentication of their message.The rest of the new testament was still being brought to them by the holy spirit and miracles were an authenticating sign for their message.By default if the apostles were to have special authority,what would that mean for us Christian that cannot be apostles(the bible states an apostle must have lived with Jesus and witnessed the risen Christ).If we as brothers and sisters agree that the word of God is complete,then when a person claims they are an apostle,either directly or inadvertently by the things they claim,we should find issue with that. I myself no longer have a back issue I used to have and my only explanation is God answered my prayers.I also have other issues that I haven't had healed.The problem with continuationism is it tends to spawn a lot of feels based heretical movements like the nar.
