2007 - Miracles, Part 4 (Video)

published Jun 08, 2007 06:18

This Week Pastor Nate addresses a kind of miracle that we may be most familiar with -- a miracle of Provision.  It can come in a number of ways, be it financial or relational.  It could be something as tangible as a new car or as rewarding as comfort for a weary heart.  But I think one thing is clear: We can all use God's miraculous provision in our lives today.

So, we'll read from 1 Kings about the account of a widow and her son who was on the brink of starvation and how she was saved by a miracle from God.  But the kind of provision she received and the means by which she received it may not have been what we might expect today.  It literally cost her everything she had -- the ingredients for the very last meal her and her son would eat before succumbing to starvation.  But that single act of faith and obedience yielded a return that saw her and her son through seasons of drought in that region during those dreadful times.

So what does that mean for us today?  How do we become a part of God's story and see miracles of provision in our own lives and the lives of those around us?  What keeps God's miraculous provision from being realized in our lives, and why does it seem like we don't see it more often?

Glad you asked!  Listen on and find out!
