Explores the miracles of Jesus Christ, their significance in revealing His divine identity, and their implications for believers today.
Good morning, dear friends. Isn't it a beautiful day to gather together in the house of the Lord? I'm so pleased to see all of you here today, ready to receive the Word of God. Today, we're going special places with our sermon, places where miracles abound, where the divine intersects with the human in the most extraordinary of ways. We're going to be looking at the miracles of our Lord Jesus Christ, those incredible moments where heaven touched earth, and the impossible became possible.
C.S. Lewis once said, "Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see." Isn't that a profound thought? The miracles of Christ weren't just isolated events, they were a part of who He was, and who He is. They were manifestations of His divine power, His love, His compassion. They were signs that pointed to His identity as the Son of God, the Savior of the world.

A fulfillment of prophecy: The Old Testament prophets had foretold that the Messiah would perform miracles, and Jesus fulfilled these prophecies. His miracles were a sign that He was the promised Messiah, the Savior of the world.
Jesus often used physical touch in His miracles: In Matthew 8:3, Jesus reached out His hand and touched a man with leprosy, saying, "I am willing; be clean!" Immediately, the man was cleansed of his leprosy ... View this full PRO sermon free with PRO
