Don’t Limit Your Miracle!

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Jun 17, 2023

The woman’s limitation to believe staff can work hindered the miracle. If she would have trusted that the staff was enough for God to heal, that would have been enough for her miracle to manifest. This teaches us an important lesson that we can limit the power of God through our lack of faith.

The Bible has accounts of several miraculous healings both in the Old and New Testament: Namaan, being healed of his leprosy, Hezekiah healed of his lump, Bartholomew healed of his blindness, a man at Bethesda healed of his paralysis and the list continues. Even today, we hear testimonies around ...read more
