In what ways can we trust God's "miracles that cannot be counted"? A Verse to Ground Us “He does great and unsearchable things, wonders without number.” (Job 5:9) Miracles Too Many to Number—A Quick Scripture Snapshot • Job 9:10 — “He does great things beyond searching out, and wonders without number.” • Psalm 40:5 — “Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders You have done… if I proclaim and declare them, they are more than I can count.” • John 21:25 — “There are many more things that Jesus did… even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.” Why We Can Trust Every Miracle • God’s Character Never Shifts – Numbers 23:19: “God is not a man, that He should lie.” – Malachi 3:6: “I, the LORD, do not change.” • Scripture Is Eyewitness Testimony – Exodus 14 records the Red Sea’s parting witnessed by an entire nation. – 1 Kings 17:16 reports the widow’s flour and oil that “did not run out” in real time. • Fulfilled Prophecy Confirms Past Miracles – Isaiah 7:14 foretells the virgin birth; Matthew 1:22-23 records it happening exactly. • Jesus Rises, Sealing Every Other Wonder – 1 Corinthians 15:4-6 notes over five hundred eyewitnesses to the resurrection. If that miracle stands, the rest stand with it. Miracles as Signs of Covenant Love • They Protect (Daniel 3:27 — not a hair singed). • They Provide (John 6:11-13 — twelve baskets left over). • They Purify (2 Kings 5:14 — Naaman’s flesh “like that of a little child”). • They Point Us Home (John 14:3 — Christ will “come again” just as He ascended in Acts 1:9-11). Living in the Reality of the Uncountable • Recall and rehearse past miracles—both biblical and personal. • Read Scripture expecting the same God to act today (Hebrews 13:8). • Rest in His sovereignty when you can’t see the outcome; unseen wonders are still wonders (2 Kings 6:17). Takeaway The Bible’s record, God’s unchanging nature, and Christ’s resurrection give rock-solid grounds to trust every one of God’s “miracles that cannot be counted.” |
