It's Time For Miracles
Believers today are in the midst of the greatest manifestation of God the earth
has ever seen. God's Word is working mightily and God's people are on the
move!

We must not allow a spirit of lethargy to creep in. We must remain strong in the
Lord and give God's Word first place in every area of our lives. Why? Because
it's time for miracles.

The Bible records a prayer that was inspired by the Holy Spirit which the people
in the early Church prayed concerning miracles. As a result, there was a move of
the Spirit of God like the world had never seen. This was their prayer:

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with
all boldness they may speak thy word, by stretching forth thine hand to heal; and
that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

Acts 4:29,30
Again, verse 30 says, By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and
wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

Do you suppose God heard that prayer?
Did those early Christians get God's attention?

If the answer is yes, then I believe we can get the same results those early
Christians did—if we pray like they did.

Someone said, "Well, you never know when God is going to move that way."
The Word says He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Heb. 13:8.) What
He did for them then, He is willing to do for us now. The only thing that stops
God from working in our behalf is doubt and unbelief.

The more I study God's Word, the more I am convinced that God is more willing
to minister to our needs—to heal and do miracles in our midst—than we are
willing to allow Him to do it.

You may ask, "If God is so interested, then why doesn't He do something about
my condition?"
You evidently don't know what His Word says. You need to get God's Word
down in your spirit.

Second Chronicles 16:9
says, For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew
himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.

Is your heart perfect toward God? If not, then He is not obligated to show
Himself strong in your behalf. Get rid of your doubt and unbelief; then you can
watch God move mightily in your life.

Those early Christians prayed. Did God answer their prayer? Let's read Acts
5:12-16 and see:
And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among
the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.

And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and
women.)

Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds
and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow
some of them.

There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem,
bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they
were healed every one.

What does this say? He healed every one!
Reader, it's time for miracles! You're no different from that group of Christians.
They had needs just as today's Christians have needs; and, thank God, if He
stretched forth His hand to heal then, why wouldn't He do it now?

How Miracles Come
Miracles don't always come just by the laying on of hands. (Mark 16:16-18.)
They can also come by your hearing the preaching of the anointed Word of God.
He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions
(Ps. 107:20).

If you need a miracle in your life, you must become miracle-minded. Don't dwell
on your problems. Don't be sickness-minded, cancer-minded, heart troubleminded,
lame-minded, blind-minded, or deaf-minded. Be miracle-minded!

You can become miracle-minded only as you get into God's Word. Learn to
meditate it day and night. This will cause you to think like God—and He is
miracle-minded!

As you read this book, I want you to prepare to receive a miracle. Lift your
hands before God and make the following confession:
Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, I determine in my heart right now to
believe You for miracles. I am miracle-minded, healing-minded, and all-myneeds-
met-minded.
