John 11:40 40Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would
believe you would see the glory of God?”.
God, who parted the Red Sea, rained manna from heaven, caused
the walls of Jericho to fall, shut the lions’ mouths, healed
the sick, raised the dead and calmed the sea, still performs
miracles today.
However, some Christians doubt that God wants to work a
miracle for them today. They believe that there were miracles
when Jesus walked the earth, but they think that the day of
miracles is over. And they talk about how everything will be
perfect one day in the sweet by and by. But God wants us to
know that He is still the God of miracles today.
Martha was like one of those Christians. She wondered if
Jesus could perform a miracle when her brother Lazarus died.
By the time Jesus arrived on the scene, Lazarus had already
been dead for four days. So she thought that Jesus was four
days too late. That is why she said, “Lord, if You had been
here, my brother would not have died.” (John 11:21) And even
when Jesus said that Lazarus would rise again, she said, “I
know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last
day.” (John 11:24)
Martha believed that Jesus could perform miracles in the past
and would do the same in the future, but she did not believe
that He could give her a miracle when she needed it right
then. You see, Martha was someone who lived wishing that the
past could be changed and believing that the future would be
better. But she did not believe that the “I Am” was there to
meet her present need.
Today, God stands at the point of your need. What miracle do
you need from Him? Believe that He is still the same
miracle-working God today. Believe that you will see the glory
of God. Believe and you will see your miracle!
