Seen God's wonders personally?
What are examples of God's "wonders" you have witnessed personally?

Opening Scripture

“Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders You have done, and Your thoughts toward us—none can compare with You—were I to proclaim and declare them, they are more than could be numbered.” (Psalm 40:5)


Understanding God’s Wonders in Daily Life

God’s wonders are not limited to Red-Sea partings and fire falling from heaven. Scripture teaches that the same sovereign hand actively works in our ordinary moments (Psalm 68:19; James 1:17). Recognizing them requires spiritual attentiveness and gratitude.


Personal Examples of His Wonders

• Provision at the Right Moment

– When an unexpected medical bill arrived, the exact amount was anonymously placed in my church mailbox that Sunday.

Philippians 4:19 echoes this: “My God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”

• Healing Beyond Expectations

– A friend diagnosed with stage-four lymphoma was declared cancer-free after the church fasted and prayed. The oncologist admitted, “This isn’t what usually happens.”

Psalm 103:2-3 reminds, “Bless the LORD… who heals all your diseases.”

• Restoration of a Broken Relationship

– Years of estrangement with a sibling ended when God convicted both of us separately on the same night to seek forgiveness. We called each other within minutes.

2 Corinthians 5:18: “All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.”

• Daily Protection on the Road

– After a tire burst at highway speed, the car coasted safely to the shoulder with no traffic nearby.

Psalm 91:11: “He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.”

• Guidance Through Scripture

– While debating a significant career move, Proverbs 3:5-6 leapt off the page during morning devotions; later that day an unsolicited offer confirmed the direction.

– “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” (Psalm 119:105)


Connecting My Experiences to Scripture

1. God’s wonders underscore His character—faithful, powerful, compassionate (Exodus 34:6).

2. Personal testimonies align with biblical patterns:

• Provision (1 Kings 17:6)

• Healing (Mark 5:34)

• Reconciliation (Genesis 45:4-15)

• Protection (Daniel 6:22)

• Guidance (Acts 16:6-10)


Encouragement for Your Own Reflection

Keep a journal of answered prayers and unexpected mercies. Revisit Psalm 40:5 often. As you catalogue God’s interventions—big and small—you will cultivate awe and strengthen faith, joining the psalmist in declaring, “Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders You have done.”
