Certificate

Cool!!!

Is there anything you are praying for or beliving for at the moment that needs Jesus to intervene somehow? You may encounter some situation today where that is required.

have marked lots of pages about answered prayers in the Bible

This is something we so often miss. Recognising answers to prayer & then acknowledging them to the Lord & thanking HIm. We enter His gates with thanksgiving (Ps 100:4). The gate was typically where elders & those with authority would gather for decisions (eg Gen 23, Gen 34:20-24, Job 29:7) & it is where people hear wisdom (Prov 8:1-3)

Looks like a decision has been made in your favour.

Although dreams often speak to our current circumstances, timing is usually an unknown. With the Lord a day is as a thousand years & a thousand years as a day (2 Peter 3:8-9).

So you may see something in days, weeks, months or years. In the case or some people in the Old Testament, it was generations before a promise was fulfilled. I don't think that will be th case for you though

How will you manage the waiting time?

I can't help but blurt out, when I read your OP I thought of Miracle Whip labels. Okay now I've said it, let's move on. (Not a user.)

That is so true -- the promise holds us through the rough times.

Jesus taught us that miracles are ongoing. He said things like [you of little faith] and [why did you think we'd need bread when we just fed five thousand?] The miracle is in His Word, already planted.

The Jews have celebrated festivals for centuries, honoring the feats where God rescued them from danger. They celebrate the miracles even when they don't see one coming. When we remind ourselves of God's intent, like you have with all your favorite marked verses, we build our awareness of how God wants to operate in our lives. Without that miracle mentality, we forget to ask for things and start going downhill in our faith that He will resolve things for us.

At first glance the certificate seems like it is a reassurance about a specific need -- a one-time ticket for an event. But scripturally, you have a sealed certificate of being a child of your heavenly Father. That is one big miracle. No question, God has glued that label on your jar and it's going to stick.

HP,

I had forgotten that you had the $4 house dream. I think this is related - gift of faith again - a re-usable certificate as Parsley said.

There are a couple of greek words used in the New Testament which are translated "miracle". The main one which is can also be translated sign, wonder is Strong's Greek: 4592. σημεῖον (sémeion) -- a sign:
b. of miracles and wonders by which God authenticates the men sent by him, or by which men prove that the cause they are pleading is God's: Matthew 12:38; Matthew 16:1, 4; Mark 8:11; Mark 16:17, 20; Luke 11:16, 29; Luke 23:8; John 2:11, 18, 23; John 3:2; John 4:54; John 6:2, 14, 26, 30; John 7:31; John 9:16; John 10:41; John 11:47; John 12:18, 37; John 20:30; Acts 2:22, 43; Acts 8:6; 1 Corinthians 1:22;

I've been praying a lot over the past 6 weeks and have marked lots of pages about answered prayers in the Bible. Well just before I woke up this morning a certificate with Miracle printed on it appeared in front of me.

Sounds like a guarantee of trust - official - you will have a much needed miracle... or someone else will.

Humblepie,

Thank you for sharing what you saw. It is nice to know that we have the guarantee of living in a "miracle filled" life when walking with the Lord. We so easily forget that we can live day to day with that level of expectation of the miraculous, simply because we are His child. This is an addendum/authorization that is part of our eternal birth certificate..... such a beautiful continuously living gift that He has given and has promised to share with us.

I wonder if it is possible that you are being called into the gift of faith/miracles....Until it is clear to you, maybe you can find a way to assist in someone elses hope for a miracle.
