Your NEED is the seed for your MIRACLE
So often we curse the problems of life and wish if only I didn’t have this need in my life how much better things would be.
I want to take a contrarian view to this thought, as we look through the pages of the Bible it becomes quickly apparent that the greatest heroes of our faith also had some of the greatest needs or were in some way handicapped by their circumstances. Yet we find out of their desperate need came the desire for a breakthrough for deliverance for themselves or others.
So often a need will produce frustration to the point of action that otherwise wouldn’t have happened.
Need is one of life’s great motivators its just how God has wired us up.
There was once a group of people who were in a church in Asia minor and they felt they had arrived, they had no needs that they were aware of - life must had seemed good, but all was not okay.
We read their story in Revelation 3:17 God is speaking to them through the Apostle John, he says
“You say I am rich; I have aquired wealth and do not need a thing. But you do not realise that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked”.
Their lack of a perceived need robbed them of humility and dependence upon God as their source of life and blessing and gave them a false sense of self sufficiency even to the point of self deception. What they possessed God hated.
So don’t despise your need, it is God’s seed for a miracle in your life if you look to Him in faith for the answer.
There is always a test when you are believing for a miracle
Number one always look to the source of your miracle - that God
Secondly don’t cave into fear, - miracles operate in a realm of faith.
God will use your need for a miraculous breakthrough
“And my God will meet all your needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:19
